Issue #12 -- Then Came Nylon

Add to Cart$8.99 ... Magazine
Magazine (Item 20370) Baffler, 1999 -- Condition: New Copy

Baffler 12, "Then Came Nylon" -- the gloomy red issue -- dishes out punishment to today's reigning academic and literary tastemakers. Pierre Bourdieu and Loïc Wacquant blast the "new global vulgate" emanating from our nation's ivy-covered precincts. Tom Frank rumbles with the "cult-studs." Mike O'Flaherty contemplates the cold corpse of rock 'n' roll. Also: fiction by Johnny Payne and Thomas Beer; art by Patrick Welch, Le Mule, Jay Ryan and Brian Chippendale; and a very disturbing exposé by Christian Parenti of torture and corruption in California's prison system. What more could you ask for?  © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
