"Mark Fisher's k-punk blogs were required reading for a generation."

Guardian

"Connecting pop culture and philosophy, the personal and the political, k-punk generously created a map to make sense of the world we live in, and a guide to help us invent a new world that makes sense for everyone. I can’t think of a more important person to read than Mark Fisher."

Holly Herndon

"Fisher is the most trusted navigator of these times out of joint."

David Peace

"Fisher’s genius was in the way he connected complex abstractions to perfectly-chosen and instantly-relatable examples from popular culture."

LA Review of Books

"Mark Fisher gave a moribund left the imaginative jolt it needed to wake from the nightmare of neoliberal complacency."

Jacobin
