description: Although he is best known as a philosopher, Deleuze's interests were extremely far-reaching. In addition to his important critiques of major philosophers like Kant, Hume, and Spinoza, he also wrote extensively on literature, cinema, and art. Deleuze wrote monographs on Proust, Kafka, and Sacher-Masoch. He also wrote essays on Beckett, Melville, Jarry, T.E. Lawrence, D. H. Lawrence, and Whitman. The essays collected in this volume are the first devoted solely to Deleuze's work on literature. Written by leading Deleuzian scholars, the essays focus on two main questions: how does Deleuze read literary texts and how can we read texts in a Deleuzian way?
