[D-G] Books on Deleuze and Guattari after 2000

[Julia Barclay]

I agree and am also glad that Guattari's contribution can be re-viewed through this new lens, as not somehow ancillary, as it seems to be generally described by academics these days, but as crucial.  I get very annoyed when Deleuze And Guattari's work is subsumed into Deleuze studies.  They are different beasts and the Dosse book makes that clear, I think.  Also, loving all the detail.  It's fascinating, and shows that indeed, as the old feminist saw goes, the personal is political...

I knew, for example, that he was a communist, but I had no idea that he was such a purist, sticking to the Trotsky line right through a split with the French Communist Party.  Also the details of early days at La Borde, the influence of Oury, the various relationships, fractures, splits, and reconciliations do give you some tempting facts.  It's hard not to consider that some of the milieu--and I use the word in D&G's own sense(s)--affected their re-reading of Freud along political lines.  It's not the only reason Anti-Oedipus turned out as it did of course; there are obviously thousands of other singularities, potentials, discursive formations, transversal becomings, and so forth.  But it is something I hadn't thought about much before reading Dosse.  I'd be interested to
