>Say, can you tell me what a deleuzian reading actually is

dear wayne, the short answer is probably "no", but what interests me at the
moment is the spatial vocabulary/imagery, which seems to me revolutionary;
what you should be directed to is the "Bluffer's [cocktail party] Guide to
Deleuze (and Guattari)" which members of this list could help you
construct...snappy one-liners on the lines of Seymour-Smith's brilliant
Bluffer's Guide to English Literature

& note, *The Anti-Oedipus* (extra marks for the 'the')........
and *Thousand Plateaus* (extra marks for deleting the 'the')....

as Seymour-Smith says about a couple of books, you actually do have to read
them; you do actually have to read Plateaus but (IMHO) you dont actually
have to read The A-O; skimming it is fine; it's a throwaway, it's Lenny
Bruce live (or was that Dave Letterman?)................
FWIW,
J
