AFTER YESTERDAY'S CRASH: THE AVANT-POP ANTHOLOGY

C1995 FAIR / GOOD PAPERBACK, RUBBED EDGES PENGUIN BOOKS [MCCAFFERY, LARRY (EDT)] CREASED FRONT PANEL, TANNED PAGES

From Publisher:

Some of the hottest writers of the 90's shared a subversive aesthetic sensibility, "avant-pop," that drew on the forms, images, slogans, characters, and narrative archetypes of our multidimensional, information-dense culture--cartoons, films, music videos, advertising, and rock music--to explore and critically examine that culture.

Each of these thirty-two works delves into the deeper metaphorical implications of this pop cultural imagery to convey a turn toward overstimulation and hyper-consumption in American life, and to explore issues of personality and identity. This provocative, stylistically experimental work is truly literature for the twenty-first century.
