Fredric Jameson is America's leading Marxist critic. A prodigiously energetic thinker whose writings sweep majestically from Sophocles to science fiction. -- Terry Eagleton Exploding like so many magnesium flares in the night sky, Fredric Jameson's writings have lit up the shrouded landscape of the postmodern. -- Perry Anderson Jameson has long been the most alluring American literary theorist, the only one to match the French in style and depth. -- Angela Woodward * Los Angeles Review of Books * Not often in American writing since Henry James can there have been a mind displaying at once such tentativeness and force. The best of Jameson's work has felt mind-blowing in the way of LSD or mushrooms. -- Benjamin Kunkel * London Review of Books * The most muscular of writers. * Times Literary Supplement * Probably the most important cultural critic writing in English today. It can truly be said that nothing cultural is alien to him. -- Colin MacCabe Jameson thinks dialectically in the strong sense, in the way we are all supposed to think but almost no one does. -- Michael Wood * London Review of Books *
