The authors of Anti-Oedipus are not searching for archetypes, which would constitute the imaginary, the dynamics, or the zoology of Kafka, since archetypes function through assimilation, homogenization, and thematization, while they find their rule only when a small heterogeneous line intrudes, in the form of rupture. They are not looking for the so-called "free associations," which their sad fate always brings back to childhood memories, or—worse—fantasies, nor do they undertake an interpretation like "this means that." Above all, they are not seeking any structure with typical oppositions and ready-made signifiers because the issue is not to create binary relationships.
What they believe in are Kafka's machines, which are neither structure nor fantasy but a Kafka experiment that contains no interpretation or meaning, only protocols of experience.
"Writing in Kafka, the primacy of writing, means only one thing: not literature but that enunciation constitutes one with desire, above laws, states, and regimes. However, enunciation is always a historic act of solitude, political and social. A micro-politics, a politics of desire, that questions all institutions."
