Norris is the most philosophically astute of all British literary theorists, and increasingly one of the most politically important, subjecting the jaded scepticisms of our time to a scintillating critique. Terry Eagleton, Distinguished Professor of English Literature, University of Lancaster David Jonathan Y. Bayot has put together several terrific interviews and less well-known works by Christopher Norris. It makes for a scintillating read, and offers an exhilarating ride across several decades and some of the most brilliant interventions genuine occasions in philosophical criticism. Norris has been a guide through deconstruction for an entire international generation of scholars; but he is also a leader, an independent thinker whose voice cuts across and through these pages with urgency, clarity, and utter commitment to serious thinking.
