Two Regimes of Madness: Texts and Interviews 1975-1995 by Gilles Deleuze
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Since this was published after his death, one mustn’t be too harsh. There is obviously very little coherency here. We get glimpses at some of Deleuze’s brilliance, shown unevenly because he didn’t refine much of this for publication. If you are starving for Deleuze, you should reach this book. You’ll grasp that he is a much more disciplined writer than Guattari. His clarity is of course, delightful, as always. There are gems here, such as Deleuze’s conflation of thought and life, transcendence and immanence. The title is compelling, but of this collection of works, there is little to show us of Deleuze himself — beyond what he has already given us in his refined publications.
