I don't know who you are, 
but I will find you...[1]

...and tell you that no month of French pondering can be complete without a philosophy-meets-history-meets-obscurantism shout-out to my countryman Michel Foucault.

His books are dizzying, strange, terrifying, and yet vaguely satisfying. What I like best, however, are the volumes of lectures. There, he expostulates, mulls, culls, and blends in ways that show a fine (though peculiar) mind at work.

Michel Foucault—he's not just for sustained narrative...anymore.
