Jean Baudrillard, RIP

Baudrillard passed away at age 77. I (embarrassingly) hadn't been aware of his most recent book about the 9/11 attacks; I'm now interested in reading it.

9/11 book

I read the 9/11 book for a conference presentation I made at MLA in Washington, DC, and I have to admit that I came away somewhat unimpressed. It's a quick read--more like a pamphlet than a book--but I thought it revealed some of the limits of his theory of simulations. Still worth a read and I would be interested in hearing what you think.
