TheNudeSurrealist1/3
Finished reading China Mieville's novel Un Lun Dun. I thoroughly enjoyed it, it was a blast to read and very funny. I particularly liked the twist (which I won't reveal) and the inventiveness throughout. He must have had a lot of fun writing it and it shows. IMO it rivals the Alice In Wonderland books in its mix of very gentle body horror, surrealism, and satire of politics. Mr. Speaker is right up there with Humpty Dumpty, and the illustrations recall John Tenniel's.

Patrick Blanchon"J’ai lu Le Roi des Rats comme on écoute un album qu’on n’a pas choisi. Quelqu’un vous l’a laissé sur la platine, vous ne savez pas très bien ce que c’est, et pourtant il tourne. Très vite, il est trop tard. Vous êtes pris."

La ville a une gare. Mais *Perdido Street Station* n’est pas un simple centre de transports. C’est un nœud, une masse, une tour cyclopéenne qui domine New Crobuzon comme une colonne vertébrale hypertrophiée. Elle pulse au centre du livre, visible depuis tous les quartiers, à la fois repère, menace, et symbole. Elle n’organise pas la ville : elle la dévore.

VeitNttbm83Endlich gehe ich Teil 2 der #BasLag Trilogie an. Bin gespannt, ob 'The Scar' mich genauso fesselt, wie vor ca. 10 Jahren 'Perdido Street Station'. Verspüre Vorfreude :)

Ulrich PlateJ’espère que son imagination littéraire du monde d’« ailleurs » soit plus cohérente que son emprise sur la réalité de ce monde-ci. Il s’est mis carrément au-delà du réel quand il a rejeté récemment une invitation d’honneur à Berlin pour des raisons farfelues – oui, je sais qu’il est furieusement pro-Palestine, d’accord, mais traiter le chef du DAAD de raciste parce qu’il a annulé la remise du prix Albertus Magnus à Nancy Fraser, prof états-unienne qui soutient le Hamas et qualifie Israël d’état « ethno-suprématiste » ? Même pour un trotskiste comme #Miéville ça me parait trop rigoureux. Le raciste en question s’appelle Joybrato Mukherjee, mine de rien. 2/2

Why Is This Happening? The Chris Hayes Podcast: What ‘The Communist Manifesto’ Means Today with China Miéville
It’s been 174 years since Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels wrote “The Communist Manifesto.” How is it still relevant today and what makes it such a vital guide to understanding present-day struggles? That’s the subject of China Mieville’s latest work, “A Spectre, Haunting: On the Communist Manifesto.” Miéville, a self-proclaimed Marxist and socialist, is a New York Times-bestselling author of fiction and non-fiction. His most recent book offers an analysis of what arguably remains the modern world’s most influential political document. He joins WITHpod to discuss criticisms of “The Manifesto,” the precipitating factors and peculiar nature of the text, how it still profoundly influences contemporary discourse and more.
