| "Thacker's discourse on the intersection of horror and philosophy is utterly original and utterly captivating Thomas Ligotti author of The Conspiracy Against the Human Race The world is increasingly unthinkable a world of planetary disasters emerging pandemics and the looming threat of extinction In this book Eugene Thacker suggests that we look to the genre of horror as offering a way of thinking about the unthinkable world To confront this idea is to confront the limit of our ability to understand the world in which we live - a central motif of the horror genre In the Dust of This Planet explores these relationships between philosophy and horror In Thacker's hands philosophy is not academic logic-chopping; instead it is the thought of the limit of all thought especially as it dovetails into occultism demonology and mysticism Likewise Thacker takes horror to mean something beyond the focus on gore and scare tactics but as the under-appreciated genre of supernatural horror in fiction film comics and music"
