## Description

Acclaimed writer Mark Fisher's seminal blog posts, reviews, and political writings from 2004-2016, offering insights on hauntology, mental health, and popular modernism.

Review: My favourite writer - The modernist desire for innovation was in the air we breathed when we were young men. It was what art was supposed to do - it was supposed to reinvent the world, make you see it with fresh eyes. It was the encounter with the genuinely strange, the unfamiliar, that we sought. Everything in my life has been directed towards those sorts of encounters, in my personal life as much as in the literature and art and music I was drawn to. You can see it in Mark Fisher's writing, not just in the arguments he's making, or in the descriptions of the ongoing cultural stasis, or in the music, post punk, jungle, that he loves. You can see it in the writing, which always strives, even at the level of the individual sentence, to lead you somewhere unexpected, somewhere that isn't facile or commonplace, somewhere genuinely new. He was the great writer of my generation, I think. And also someone with whom I had a great deal in common - so much in fact that often I can't remember whether the things I'm writing or thinking are things I read in k-punk or whether they predate that point. Some kind of Neuromancer Wintermute fusing of consciousness. He had a way of articulating the things I was only vaguely aphasically thinking, that were hovering around the edges of consciousness, half formed. There's a generosity in these pieces and a total sincerity and integrity, as well as the bravery to make yourself vulnerable, to put your head above the parapet, to risk middlebrow mockery. I love all of that. I think you will too.
Review: Please read - Insightful, if bleak. I found myself having nightmares about out of town shopping centres, industrial estates, waiting lists, and the rising cultures of ‘meta-work’ only to wake up and remember it’s reality. But this is brilliant collection of essays by a great thinker.

The modernist desire for innovation was in the air we breathed when we were young men. It was what art was supposed to do - it was supposed to reinvent the world, make you see it with fresh eyes.

Insightful, if bleak. I found myself having nightmares about out of town shopping centres, industrial estates, waiting lists, and the rising cultures of ‘meta-work’ only to wake up and remember it’s reality. But this is brilliant collection of essays by a great thinker.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wake up, dare to dream!
*by A***D on 2 March 2019*

This is a wonderful collection of work that draws upon the past and present to dare to imagine better futures. While drawing on philosophy, theory and history it is an eminently readable and enjoyable book that makes me think about the world in different and clearer ways. Absolutely inspiring. I was devastated on reading the unpublished introduction to Acid Communism, the book Mark Fisher was working on at the time of his death. It's fantastic but ultimately leaves me wanting more. There will be no more words but this wonderful book and his previously published works are vital to understanding how the world we live in is not the only one we can have and how we can both create and dare to dream a better one. Absolutely essential reading.
