“Parables for the Virtual has become an indispensable reference point for many of the most vigorous intellectual developments of the past decade. It points the way to a style of thought that might well lead to renewed and invigorated conceptualizations of the most varied domains. As one of the most important theory texts of the twenty-first century, Parables remains influential, fertile, and suggestive.”
~Steven Shaviro, author of, The Universe of Things: On Speculative Realism
“Shifting focus from subjects to the situations and events that form them, Parables for the Virtual has given those who dream futures beyond coloniality, patriarchy, capitalist extraction, and state biopower not only a different vocabulary but a range of new perceptual habits to attune to the violences that shape our world. Spurring experimental ways of living into new futures, this book is not only one of our most important theories of the event, it is an event: it alters the reader's perception, their sense of what might yet be.”
~Nathan Snaza, author of, Animate Literacies: Literature, Affect, and the Politics of Humanism
