I just read 'First As Tragedy, Then As Farce' - only thing I've read by him - and enjoyed it a lot. The first section of it is very lucid while the second engages in a lot of heavy hegelian/lacanian/frechmarxian reference, making it occasionally difficult to understand (for me at least), but keep going on through it and there's plenty to be interested by.
