Features: In this new work, Fussell, the author of Class, displays with his characteristic wit and sharp pen the incurable perceptiveness and taste of Americans. The entire society is choked with the frivolous emptiness and beautiful trash. Vulgarity is everywhere, from advertising, banks, restaurants, and transportation to thought, literature, and higher education, where there is prettiness, hypocrisy, ignorance, and superficiality.
