COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Intriguing submitted by kittenkat101 on August 23, 2011, 11:42am I have to admit, I wanted to read this book because it has such an interesting title. However, it is a very interesting critique on popular culture. Klosterman covers everything from Star Wars and Guns N Roses to the internet, and CDs. I found this book hard to put down.
