"The chapter is about the fairy tales Marx invented to amuse his children during long walks through London, fairy tales that as Dienst reads them offer a kind of magical, child’s-eye explanation of the commodity and, eventually, of existence in a state of debt. It will make you want to take walks, tell stories—and maybe even have children, despite the bills to pay."

Anyone who has not yet encountered the sentence-by sentence brilliance of Richard Dienst’s reflections on capitalism’s material and media infrastructure, notably in his Marxist-Derridian take on television, Still Life in Real Time, is hereby recommended to read Chapter Six of The Bonds of Debt.
