Limbo by Dan Fox

An essay on being stuck, and its opposites, by the author of Pretentiousness: Why it Matters.

‘Dan Fox has produced a fascinating work of understated excellence, particularly given his starting pointEloquent in its consideration of the subjects it focuses on and elegant in the brevity and precision of its chapters, Limbo gets to the heart of the matter and gives you something to think about.’
Pendora Magazine


‘Open-spirited and beautifully written.’
— Kate Wakeling, TLS


Limbo mixes the historical, the conceptual and the anecdotal in a very elegant way, and it is a testament to Fox’s ability as a writer that he can make, in what is a relatively short book, such disparate ideas and stories fall into place in a narrative that feels really clear and organised. … While obviously an astute cultural theorist who can draw on a truly diverse range of sources, it is the personal element of Limbo brings out the storyteller in Fox. … it is in writing about his family relationships, and the transition through adolescence into adulthood, which brings the true depth to the book.’
The London Magazine
