How to Read Like a Parasite

“A compelling picture of the ways that Nietzscheanism hijacks the left.”
“Beautifully written and bursting with spirit, How to Read Like a Parasite is destined to be vital reading.”
“Written with clarity and force, sensitive to historical context and covering an extensive array of the Nietzsche literature, this book animates a new standard in reading Nietzsche.”
“Exemplary… Tutt’s evaluation of the consequences of Nietzschean politics is more lucid than Left Nietzscheans might wish.”
“Today, in our age of quick new Right or new Left dismissals, such a stance is needed more than ever.”
“Tutt’s book sets a new standard for understanding how to read Nietzsche from the political left.”
“The conclusion of How to Read Like a Parasite is that a ruthless, even “parasitical” critique of Nietzsche, who cannot be ignored but must be constantly confronted head on, is the key to overcoming the destruction of reason in our time.”
