Life's Little Deconstruction Book: Self-help for the Post-hip Book
Portable Po-Mo, Disposable Derrida, Foucault-to-Go. This tiny manual provides an introduction to theoretical posturing, a commentary on postmodernism, a subversive satire, and a tribute to the love-hate relationship many of us have with fashionable ideas-all in a very few words. Like postmodernism itself, Life's Little Deconstruction Book is a work of inspired piracy, melding cutting-edge cultural theory with the corporate and computer lingos that permeate our lives. Infused with humor, intellectual rigor, and a certain poetic sensibility, it provides day-by-day instruction for the contemporary scene, requiring no commitment, yet still delivering intellectually. (6.) Expose depth as another surface. (39.) Be as if. (41.) Maneuver between pastiche and mish mash. (66.) Be a willy-nilly citizen of the world. (97.) Negotiate identity. (179.) Manufacture nostalgia. (180.) Temp. (190.) Cut and paste. (200.) Collect world views. (237.) Take irony for granted.Read More
