The Illusions of Postmodernism by Terry Eagleton
In this brilliant critique, Terry Eagleton explores the origins and emergence of postmodernism, revealing its ambivalences and contradictions. Above all he speaks to a particular kind of student, or consumer, of popular "brands" of postmodern thought.
"Eagleton shows his firm grasp of political tactics and knowledge of historyIt is exceptional" Steven Donovan
