2019, book 5: Foucault for beginners, Lydia Alix Fillingham and Moshe Süsser

I read this after talking to Viv. It's of course very superficial, but it does not make me want to read Foucault.

Foucault appears to mostly be navel-gazing word drivel of the worst kind. "The Clinic" is taking a set of naive observations and stretching hemt to fit other phenomena in society—except there is no fit: it's just square pegs in round observations. This is Malcolm-Gladwell-ism avant la lettre.
