Abstract

"Grand Hotel Abyss combines biography, philosophy and storytelling to reveal how a group of German thinkers, the Frankfurt School, redefined the twentieth century and our own times. This band - which included philosophers Walter Benjamin, Theodor Adorno, Max Horkheimer, and Herbert Marcuse - explored politics and popular culture to understand the nature and crisis of our mass-produced, mechanised society. Grand Hotel Abyss shows that these ideas still have much to tell us about our age of social media and consumerism."
