Look it’s a cult classic but not like, that that classic, you know, like some things didn’t age well and some of the joy of it is lost in a rewatching but it’s still got some wonderful moments and great characters.
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.
