Scarce 1983 first English edition of On the Line by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, published by Semiotext(e) as part of the influential Foreign Agents Series. This pocket-sized volume, translated by John Johnston, encapsulates the pair’s incisive thought and radical approach to politics, philosophy, and culture. Issued during Semiotext(e)’s Columbia University period, this is an important artifact of post-structuralist thought in America.

This copy shows expected shelf and cover wear with scuffing and creasing to wraps, but remains solidly bound.
