Scholarly advice for dark times. --The New Yorker Provides a metric ton of misery and a lot of company. --The New York Times Teeming with aphorisms and hilarious one-liners... probably philosophy's only beach read. --Vice Belongs on the shelf next to the likes of Nietzsche and Schopenhauer... Thacker's voice is quiet, a desperate whisper into the void that is both haunting and heartbreaking. --Into the Void When life gives us lemons, Thacker refuses to make lemonade. Rather he adds lemon juice to the ink pot, and proceeds to write with an acerbic clarity - and touches of black humor - about the predicament of being human. --Dominic Pettman, author of Human Error: Species Being and Media Machines
