The Spectacle of Disintegration by Mckenzie Wark
Acclaimed author follows the work of the Situationist International after May 1968.
Wark's readable explanation of the movement's ideas is the best I have read-- Edwin Heathcote, In praise of 'Beach Beneath the Street' * Financial Times *
A playful, smart and occasionally epigrammatic study of the Situationists ... this brilliant account is not only an essential work for our own times; it also comes with a cover that, with the minimum of manual dexterity, folds out intoa collaborative graphic essay. -- John Burnside * Times Literary Supplement *
