Features: As the title suggests, the book consists of short essays written in a satirical tone. Satire differs from irony and humor; it involves mocking others with a smile, critiquing with an appearance of appreciation and amusement, and teasing with a seemingly sincere and generous tone. This style of writing, prevalent in the 1990s, allows us to distance ourselves from the pretentiousness, vulgarity, and affectation in contemporary social fashion and popular culture, all while laughing in understanding. Perhaps you won’t agree with the authors’ views, but you’ll certainly acknowledge their meticulous observation, sharp insight, and clever writing style.
