Between Nothing and a Promise of Eternity: Reading Alain Badiou's "Black: The Brilliance of a Non-Color"

The book explores narratives of black: brings black into different contexts, compares it with white and other colors of spectrum, reflects on the underneath meanings hidden by black. It is a piece of art that is difficult to be classified by genre: it may be a collection of short stories, an autobiography, an essay. Belonging to both literary and philosophic contexts, this book is not “heavy,” both literally and metaphorically, but filled with unusual observations and reflections on meanings hidden behind the colors.
