Revenge of the Crystal: Selected Writings on the Modern Object and Its Destiny, 1968-1983

This anthology features a breadth of work from cultural commentator Baudrillard, with translations of his major writings from the 1960s through to his critiques of Marxism in the 1970s and sexuality in the 1980s. The book serves as an introduction to those unfamiliar with his writings, as it features a range of commentary and choice of texts, and outlines the extent of Baudrillard’s reading of Marx and the subtlety of his thought on the fate of the object within society.
