Media Reviews
Baudrillard Live is a superb introduction to the most important and original French thinker of the past 20 years. Here Baudrillard speaks frankly of his modest family background, his apprentice years in the French university system, his continuing sense of himself as an outsider, his dispute with Foucault and his ambiguous response to his sudden fame in America . . . Vast and intriguing.
-J. G. Ballard, author of Empire of the Sun and In Praise of Women
The chief value of the interviews collected by Mike Gane in Baudrillard Live is the challenge they offer to the achieved flatness of Baudrillard's recent work. . . . it is the unsettling voices of the interviewers which make Baudrillard Live a worthwhile addition to the growing number of his books available in translation.
- The Irish Times
This book is--what might sound like a contradiction in terms--an ideal teaching book on Baudrillard.
