Love’s no bargain. There’s no exchange, no transaction, with the world. One just tries and fails to give. One just trusts in a capacity to exceed oneself and open oneself, to go, to let go. In love, there’s no happy endings. Only the memory of moments when what can be—was.

Rezensionen
Seeing the world unfold from the perspective of a self is easier than seeing that self as a particular folding-up of the world. MacKenzie Wark's special genius, in this wild ride across the late twentieth century and its aftermath, is to offer both perspectives at once, shimmying and shaking between the two with gleeful and brilliant abandon. Susan Stryker, author of Transgender History
