Book Overview
In three parts, Jameson presents the postmodern problem of Utopia, attempting to diagnose the cultural present and to open a perspective on the future of a world that is all but impossible to predict with any certainty -- a telling of the future, as Jameson calls it, with an imperfect deck.

Bravo Jameson!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Aside from "Postmodernism, or, the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism," this is my favorite book of Jameson's. In this eloquent and at times difficult book, Jameson goes further into his analysis of postmodern culture. What I like most about this book is his detailed discussion of architecture and built space in postmodernity. He also says something about the importance of utopian politics for him. All in all, this book is short and very well written. A must read for anyone interested in Western Marxism, cultural theory, and/or postmodernism.
