It's interesting that I was assigned both some Zizek readings and The Chomsky Reader by Noam Chomsky while I was a graduate student at the University of Tennessee, considering the feud that exists between the two writers. Chomsky basically accuses Zizek of being an incoherent and illegitimate scholar, and vice versa. After reading both authors, I'm prepared to say that neither one is particularly coherent. I understood the occasional sentence of The Chomsky Reader, but ultimately could not make it through the book. Aside from a general hatred of American foreign policy, not much is conveyed, so I can't really recommend the book.
