The author of Doutor Fausto and Ensaio Sobre o Termo da História, among other books and essays, looks at Living Currency by Pierre Klossowski. It is a heterodox essay on the conversion of all libidinal force into a commodity and the resulting social organisation. Klossowski establishes a degree of equivalence between the libidinal economy and the economy of material goods and sheds light on the extreme logic of money and its life, which captures all lives.
