520    "One-Way Street is a thoroughfare unlike anything else in 
       literature--by turns exhilarating and bewildering, 
       requiring mental agility and a special kind of urban 
       literacy. Presented here in a new edition with expanded 
       notes, this genre-defying meditation on the semiotics of 
       late-1920s Weimar culture offers a fresh opportunity to 
       encounter Walter Benjamin at his most virtuosic and 
       experimental, writing in a vein that anticipates later 
       masterpieces such as 'On the Concept of History' and The 
       Arcades Project. Composed of sixty short prose pieces that
       vary wildly in style and theme, One-Way Street evokes a 
       dense cityscape of shops, cafes, and apartments, alive 
       with the hubbub of social interactions and papered over 
       with public inscriptions of all kinds: advertisements, 
       signs, posters, slogans. Benjamin avoids all semblance of 
       linear narrative, presenting readers with a seemingly 
       random sequence of aphorisms, reminiscences, jokes, off-
       the-cuff observations, dreamlike fantasias, serious 
       philosophical inquiries, apparently unserious 
       philosophical parodies, and trenchant political 
       commentaries. Providing remarkable insight into the 
       occluded meanings of everyday things, Benjamin time and 
       again proves himself the unrivalled interpreter of what he
       called 'the soul of the commodity.' Despite the diversity 
       of its individual sections, Benjamin's text is far from 
       formless. Drawing on the avant-garde aesthetics of Dada, 
       Constructivism, and Surrealism, its unusual construction 
       implies a practice of reading that cannot be reduced to 
       simple formulas. Still refractory, still radical, One-Way 
       Street is a work in perpetual progress."--Provided by 
       publisher.
