"France's leading expert on modern thought" has quoted extensively from a philosopher who's only about as real as De Selby:

Leading French intellectual Bernard-Henri Levy has been caught red-faced for praising the work of a philosopher who, it turns out, was invented as a joke by a journalist from a satirical daily.


He says the creator is "a good philosopher all the same". Maybe, but he's probably more use to society as a satirist.
