"The texts and interviews gathered in this volume cover the last twenty years of Gilles Deleuze's life (1975-1995), which saw the publication of his major works: A Thousand Plateaus (1980), Cinema I: Image-Movement (1985), Cinema II: Image-Time (1985), all leading through language, concept and art to What is Philosophy? (1991). They also document Deleuze's increasing involvement with politics (Toni Negri, terrorism, etc.). The texts of Two Regimes of Madness complete those collected in Desert Islands (1953-1974). Both volumes were conceived by the author himself to be his last. Together they provide a prodigious entry into the work of the most important philosopher of our time."--BOOK JACKET.

Such statements -- though boggling -- are rather exciting, well at least to me. Two Regimes is a collected works volume, a bin for minor pieces, prefaces and interviews. One has to be familiar with Deleuze (especially with his famed collaborations with Guattari) to find much traction. There are some neutral selections that could enchant the novice, in particular a colloquium on Proust where Deleuze enchants while Roland Barthes comes across as bit of a dick. Deleuze is rather moving in his pieces on Guattari and Foucault, he notes on the latter that books of Foucault provide context but that is only half of the project, the other half is provided in the interviews. I would like to think the same applies to Deleuze himself. ( )
