I find him to be a bit of a character, and a lovable one at that, but can't bring myself to actually sit down and listen/read because of it - am I missing out?
I’m currently reading How to Read Lacan (which is basically how to read Zizek’s interpretation of Lacan), and am having an absolute blast. It’s short, full of witty jokes, and is still packed of insightful thinking. (And you’ll probably get something out of it even without any background on continental philsophy)
