Reviews
America
in Absentia is a reflective text which is immediately
captivating and draws the reader into its poetic web of
allusion. He vividly illustrates the role postmodernism and our
moral self-conception play within globalised economies. --Shibboleths:
A Journal of Comparative Theory and Criticism
If
you liked Jean Baudrillard's America (1988) - you'll
love Ruiz's America in Absentia (2008). -- @OrlandoCurrents

Description
"America is the highest bidder in this speculative game. Let us
