The Last Days of New Paris

scifi: Paris in 1950 is simultaneously overrun by weird surrealist creatures and occupied by Nazis (with some French resistance). turns out that in 1941, a chain of events led to the accidental activation of a magical device that turned ("manifested") the Surrealist drawings of a French Resistance group into reality. the climax is when the Nazis try to manifest a version of Adolf Hitler.

Afterword
On Coming to Write The Last Days of New Paris

you'd think this would be a straightforward case of factual peritext but in fact IT'S PART OF THE TEXT ITSELF (i.e., it's fictional) whoa

Silence in Debris: Towards an Apophatic Marxism

this is definitely the sort of essay that non-academic types hate but i actually loved it (though i did kinda have to force myself to keep reading after the first few mentions of "apophatic")
