A bit too academic to be a 'light read' so it took awhile to get through and more than a bit of mental energy/fortitude to get through some parts. I found myself reading some paragraphs over and over to really 'get' them. I loved all the film and book examples and analysis though, and definitely see them in a new light now. I will be checking out the ones I haven't seen or read already as well. A great book that's still relevant for our endtimes. I hope to purchase it, use it for inspiration for some of my own writing, and recommend it to comrades and friends with similar philosophical and political leanings in the future.

From the repurposed rubble of salvagepunk to undead hordes banging on shopping mall doors, from empty waste zones to teeming plagued cities, Combined and Uneven Apocalypse grapples with the apocalyptic fantasies of our collapsing era. Moving through the films, political tendencies, and recurrent crises of late capitalism, Evan Calder Williams paints a black toned portrait of the dream and nightmare images of a global order gone very, very wrong. Situating itself in the defaulting financial markets of the present, Combined and Uneven Apocalypse glances back toward a messy history of zombies, car wrecks, tidal waves, extinction, trash heaps, labour, pandemics, wolves, cannibalism, and general nastiness that populate the underside of our cultural imagination. Every age may dream the end of the world to follow, but these scattered nightmare figures are a skewed refraction of the normal hell of capitalism. The apocalypse isn't something that will happen one day: it's just the slow unveiling of the catastrophe we've been living through for centuries. Against any fantasies of progress, return, or reconciliation, Williams launches a loathing critique of the bleak present and offers a graveside smile for our necessary battles to come.
