This review is from: Myth and Metropolis: Walter Benjamin and the City (Paperback)
Beautifully written, provocative and truly mind expanding, Gilloch makes Benjamin not only relevant but necessary. Benjamin like Freud like McLuhan, like Baudrillard invites engagement, welcomes new interpretations, even demands controversy--Gilloch does it all and the read is as substantial as it is rewarding. The book opened doors into Benjamin that I could not pry open alone. In Gilloch's company, I feel I can enter Benjamin's labyrinth confident I'll emerge with a real grasp of the man's intent.
