THE NINETIES A Book

Chuck Klosterman, American popular culture commentator, narrates his latest audiobook in a suitably unvarnished style. He highlights a decade of indelible cultural moments and increasing political polarity. Klosterman comments on quirky cultural diversions tied to the nineties--what, exactly, was the clear beverage phenomenon all about?--and provides background and context to address the way our memories about them may fail us. For example, Y2K was a mounting global concern even if the majority didn't think it was a big deal. Klosterman's voice may take some time to warm up to, but he knows where to hit his points and keep the listener engaged. Dion Graham's authoritative voice delivers the quotes and footnotes that clarify and frame Klosterman's myriad thoughts. S.P.C. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2022]
