Reviews
"Zizek has only to clap eyes on a received truth to feel the intolerable itch to deface it ... Zizek is that rare breed of writer - one who is both lucid and esoteric. If he is sometimes hard to understand, it is because of the intricacy of his ideas, not because of a self-preening style." --Terry Eagleton "The most dangerous philosopher in the West." --Adam Kirsch, New Review

Synopsis
A brilliant dissection and reconstruction of the three major faith-based systems of belief in the world today - Christianity, Judaism and Islam., A brilliant dissection and reconstruction of the three major faith-based systems of belief in the world today - Christianity, Judaism and Islam - by one of the world's most articulate philosophers, Slavoj Zizek, in conversation with fellow Slovenian philosopher and priest Boris Gunjevic. God in Pain shows how each faith understands humanity and divinity - and how the differences between the faiths may be far stranger than they may at first seem., A brilliant dissection and reconstruction of the three major faith-based systems of belief in the world today, from one of the world's most articulate intellectuals, Slavoj Zizek, in conversation with Croatian philosopher Boris Gunjevic. In six chapters that describe Christianity, Islam, and Judaism in fresh ways using the tools of Hegelian and Lacanian analysis, God in Pain: Inversions of Apocalypse shows how each faith understands humanity and divinity--and how the differences between the faiths may be far stranger than they may at first seem. Chapters include (by Zizek) (1) "Christianity Against Sacred," (2) "Glance into the Archives of Islam," (3) "Only Suffering God Can Save Us," (4) "Animal Gaze," (5) "For the Theologico-Political Suspension of the Ethical," (by Gunjevic) (1) "Mistagogy of Revolution," (2) "Virtues of Empire," (3) "Every Book Is Like Fortress," (4) "Radical Orthodoxy," (5) "Prayer and Wake."
