despite having a confusing plot, about 5 too many main characters, and being constructed of short scenes that never quite give you a grasp of what’s happening, the political intriguing is engrossing and cool.
This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.
