Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs: A Low Culture Manifesto by Chuck Klosterman

| No Comments

I borrowed this non-fiction book from my friend Sidey 3.0.

A blurb on the cover calls it a piece of "pop analysis", and at first I was skeptical. But that is exactly what it is, and in a good way. The important thing to realize is that the phrase "pop analysis" does not mean it is "faux-analysis" in the way that the term "pop psychology" has a derogatory implication about the described psychology, but, rather, the term "pop analysis" means that this book is an analysis of pop culture. And a brilliant, witty one at that.
