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

4.0

Pretty good. It is a bit outdated though, being nearly nine years old. While pretty much all of the pop culture references still exist for me, I felt as if I was looking at a time capsule, not only in terms of what was popular or relevant in 2003, but also in terms of Klosterman's opinions and views on life. I feel that as a country we've moved on a great deal from where he puts us. This is not to say that postmodernism is not relevant (although I am ready for whatever comes post-postmodernism), but I don't feel that his assertions quite have the same weight they did then. Despite all the nostalgia (on my part), he writes cleverly and I found it to be a good read overall.
