60) Part III of the books I read in the summer of 2023: "The Nineties - A Book" further validates Chuck Klosterman's credentials as the most prominent pop-culture critic of this era
You’re right. I do like this! That Alanis fact is crazy. I wondered with the films you mentioned if he discusses Clerks, Chasing Amy, etc? And I’m so curious about Leo. I just rewatched Shutter Island the other day and was thinking about how wonderful an actor he is and how he seems like such a lonely guy (hopefully I’m wrong). I really have to read this. What a good book club you have. Thank you!
I just read a more comprehensive review of Klosterman's book from a writer from "The Nation". While it was interesting, in my view it was lacking objectivity, all the while criticizing Klosterman for his lack of objectivity. I would say this was quite ironic, but I actually found little humor in the review, although I did learn some things. https://www.thenation.com/article/culture/klosterman-nineties/
