Cruel Optimism di Lauren Berlant

I read this over the summer, but it's probably more of a January thing. When it gets real rough just to do anything at all, this stuff can help.

Cruel Optimism di Lauren Berlant

Definitely thought-provoking, though some of the connections between chapters felt a little disparate? I really enjoyed chapter five, especially the thoughts related to slow death, but was less interested in other things? This just wasn't my greatest cup of tea, which is more about my feelings and less about the book itself. I liked it, I just wasn't thrilled and rarely felt like blown away. A good read nonetheless, and I recommend it to folks who want to engage with affect theory and see how it works/what it might be able to do for them.… (altro)
