Description
Mark Fisher's final lectures offer a profound exploration of desire and its relationship with capitalism. Edited and introduced by Matt Colquhoun, these transcripts reveal Fisher's thought-provoking ideas on the emergence and failure of counterculture movements, and the development of his left-accelerationist line of thinking. Fisher's work charts a tragically interrupted course for thinking about the raising of a new kind of consciousness, and the cultural and political implications of doing so. This collection provides a unique insight into Fisher's thought process, and offers a compelling exploration of the possibilities for a post-capitalist future. Through his analysis, Fisher draws on a range of historical and cultural contexts, from the 1970s counterculture to the present day. This book is a valuable contribution to the ongoing conversation about the nature of desire and its relationship to politics and culture.
