A very confrontational text for the academic who commits himself to the unfolding of complex philosophical systems and assimilates, absorbs and criticises other thinkers. Does he take his philosophical companions as well as himself seriously? Is his complex use of language just an illusion of depth? Is his project really life affirming or is it rather something to artificially boost his low self-esteem? Rhetorical, painful questions.

I wish I had time to read this. If you recorded a reading of this I would be able to absorb it. Please consider!
Dear chinaman, thank you for your interest. I do think of offering recordings at some point, but this will have to wait.
