This was a very thorough experience of postmodernism in all art, literature, philosophy and society in general, but I do agree that it does not feel like a beginners' guide at all. I feel like the author just throws a lot of terms around and assumes the general audience will know about them, and this might not always be the case. Also it seems that he makes some questions that he just doesn't give the answer to? And he also seems to jump from one topic to the next but with no clear direction, which makes it all confusing at times.
