What is Against Continuity : Gilles Deleuze's Speculative Realism about?

## Repositions Deleuze as a forerunner to Speculative Realism __Against Continuity__ is the first book to demonstrate that the beating heart of Gilles Deleuze’s philosophy is a systematic ontology of irreducible, singular entities. This requires a radical break with decades of Deleuzian orthodoxy, according to which Deleuze’s metaphysics revolves around the dissolution of discrete entities into a continuous world of flows and events. With reference to all of Deleuze’s work, including published and untranslated seminars, as well as the recently published __Lettres et autres textes__, Arjen Kleinherenbrink critically compares Deleuze’s ontology to seven related contemporary thinkers: Levi Bryant, Maurizio Ferraris, Markus Gabriel, Manuel DeLanda, Graham Harman, Tristan Garcia and Bruno Latour.
