Panegyric

“A brief and elegiac memoir of a life lived in its shadows and cracks.”—Artforum

“As cryptic and self-effacing a self-portrait as can be found anywhere ... Panegyric is almost purely literary, in the sense that one need know or care nothing of the author to be captured by it: Debord is seeking to hijack his era into timelessness.”—London Review of Books

“These concise but extremely rich and provocative memoirs are the product of ... a philosopher whose scathing pen has never been so sharp.”—San Francisco Chronicle
