the visible and the invisible - maurice merleau-ponty anti-oedipus (capitalism and schizophrenia) - gilles deleuze :shock: sounds complicated. do you recommend that for an easily confused person? :tard: |

hmm, it's hard to tell in a few lines but here's a summary I found online: Richard Papen arrives at Hampden College, Vermont, and is quickly seduced by an elite group of five students, all Greek scholars, all wealthy, self-assured, and highly unapproachable. This clique of students is made up of wealthy trust-funded Henry, rich homosexual Francis, possibly bi-sexual Charles and his pretty twin sister Camilla and Bunny who blags money off them all. As Richard is drawn into their inner circle, he learns the secret that binds them to one another...a secret about an incident in the woods one night where an ancient rite was brought to brutal life...and led to a gruesome death. Years later Richard reflects on the lengths they were willing to go to keep their secret, eventually leading to the downfall of them all. I think they may even make a movie based on the book......with Gwyneth P. |
