My initial review was succinct, and to the untrained ear, somewhat obscene. This book impressed me greatly, and I'd love to hear the lectures from which it was transcribed someday.

It's no secret that Derrida indulges a tendency to ramble. Specters of Marx is full of really interesting ideas about the evolution of Marxist theory from it's conception to the print date of this book.

One of, in my judgment, Derrida's best works and one that I can't read without crying. Derrida turns a seemingly marginal reading of Marx into a mediation on Heidegger, memories, forgetting and haunting. Painfully difficult in every sense and some of the most rewarding reading I have ever done.

recommends it for: people who are extra smart
I like reading people's reviews about this book. Especially the people who think it's about Marx and don't get that it's about methodology.

I love you, Derrida.
