The book aims at interrogating the contemporary problematic of
neoliberalism and its relationship to culture and ideology through
the lens of a theoretical synthesis interweaving the emancipatory
aesthetics of Herbert Marcuse, Fredric Jameson's pathbreaking
analysis of the cultural logic of late capitalism, and the late
Mark Fisher's work on "post-capitalist desire" and "acid
communism." The main imperative is to formulate a possible (and, as
it turns out, necessary) opening for aesthetic critique in the
climate of contemporary neoliberal capitalism. This mode of
aesthetic critique is then operationalized through an exemplary
reading of the emancipatory poetics of Ben Lerner's 2014 novel
"10:04."
