More about the book
Exploring the intersection of horror and love, this work delves into the ethical extremes through radical formalism. Brinkema employs a variety of analytical tools, such as diagrams and patterns, to examine themes of violence, friendship, and care in film, literature, and philosophy. By rethinking the affect of horror, she connects impersonal structures to human experiences, addressing complex relationships between aesthetics and ethics. The book combines etymological insights and innovative typography, offering a unique approach to aesthetic theory and reading practices.
