On a Nick Land Reader

This is a hard book to review. It’s a different beast from Fanged Noumena, which gathers Land’s pre-2007 work and distills accelerationism in what I’d call its purest form. This one puts that earlier writing in conversation with his later, Neoreactionary phase — which is exactly why I picked it up. Mencius Moldbug, or Curtis Yarvin, has been in the news a great deal lately, and I’d read one of his short treatises before.
