A languorous howl of despair and anger - but who would not feel these things in the ashes of Germany 1945? I was surprised by how fierce Adorno can be - I've heard horror stories of his impenetrable style. Here, I was surprised, both at the crispness of his style, and the depth of his cultural references. If anyone wants to start with him, here's a place to do so. His barbed aphorisms will remain with you, vicious and snarling, a rabid dog tearing into your leg. This book offers a damning critique of all of society, from fascism to door handles - although, at times it feels like the ramblings of a grumpy old man, who offers not even the hint of a solution, and despairs that all is lost. The theory and practice of despair. Not for everyone. This book (perhaps along with the essays in Prisms) is Adorno's most accessible work. It is written in the maxim/eprigram style usually associated with Nietzsche (and thus Adorno's academic employers found it unsufficiently scholarly). Adorno's ideas about the intellectual and cultural poverty of contemporary life seem right on target to me. At the end of the book--after page upon page upon page of indictments of the vacuousness of our world today--Adorno concludes by stating that the only possible way of meaningfully existing in this world is to view it from the standpoint of how it would be if it were all redeemed. This unusually optimistic ending is probably more true to the real spirit of Adorno's thought than the bleak, condemnatory ideas (which he certainly expresses at length) stereotypically associated with his philosophy. I initially read the book at a very difficult time in my life and--despite its unflinching look at the horrors and blankness of the world--found it quite comforting. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

La consciencia de la liquidacion del individuo por el tipo de colectivismo que ha llegado a imperar bajo el capitalismo tardio es el revulsivo final que propicia la concepcion de otra existencia individual, libre de la esclavitud de la ley economica, que sea la verdadera sustancia de la colectividad. Las significativas fechas que enmarcan la composicion de estos escritos - fechas que, por razones historicas y personales del autor, le hacen escribir desde un forzoso recluimiento en su intimidad - propiciaran una concentracion creativa que, a un filosofo coma el, tan ajeno a la oficialidad, no podia por menos de animarle a expresarse en un genero tan poco academico coma el aforistico.

That's my takeaway from this book. Don't float above everything like some enlightened master. Get down in it. Punch it in the face. Stare into the abyss. Tear the shoulds and falseness off of modern culture, then roll around in the rest. Just me?
