Much has been said already about this unique and disturbing book, but this much is reasonably certain: A thousand times more is yet to be said.
Imperium is the first sequel the literary world knows... More > to Spengler’s monumental The Decline of the West.
In fact, the author of Imperium does more than even Spengler attempted — he defines and creates the pathology of Culture in all of its infinitely urgent importance, including the discipline of Cultural Vitalism.
