"Avital Ronell has put together what must be one of the most remarkable critical oeuvres of our era...Zeugmatically yoking the slang of pop culture with philosophical analysis, forcing the confrontation of high literature and technology or drug culture, Avital Ronell produces sentences that startle, irritate, illuminate. At once hilarious and refractory, her books are like no others." Jonathan Culler, Diacritics
