{"product_id":"9780692277379","title":"True Detection","description":"A collection of philosophical and critical essays on the television series True Detective.\u003cp\u003e\"Traditionally, the detective genre deals with the problem of epistemology - how to know something that one doesn't know. There are some things we cannot know, and some things we should not know. Sometimes clues just give way to more clues, and epistemic tedium rules the day. These essays reveal knowledge becoming an enigma to itself, revealing the brilliant futility of the epistemological project.\" - Eugene Thacker, author of In The Dust of This Planet\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The television event of the year - I would say many years - is without doubt True Detective. One deserving of forensic, unflinching, and unrelenting philosophical treatment.\" - Simon Critchley\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The most intelligent series in TV history has opened strange crypts for explorers. This excellent essay collection reveals just how far the dark tunnels lead. Let it coax you from the comforts of death and fear, into detection of the guttering nightmare that is life, coldly seen.\" - Nick Land\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCONTENTS\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI.
