Unknown Author

4.9/5 (24822 ratings)

Description:An incomparably hilarious satire of modern consumer culture, with everything from personality to religion commodified, like Virginie Despentes meets Blade Runner.The latest novel from Poland's literary enfant terrible takes place within the American pop imaginarium, weaving an urban tale of two independent young women through the author's signature lexicon of street slang and mass-media-driven lingoThe bond between the two friends is rattled when one (Jo/Joanna) leaves the single life at the behest of a new boyfriend. Fah (Farrah) finds refuge in a new friendship with Go (Gosia/Margot), an eccentric hipster with a knack for getting her way. The impetus of the action resides in the language, rather than any particular plot twists. There are several dimensions at work within the book, poking at intergenerational issues, subcultures, the media, celebrity culture and pseudo-intellectualism on a global scale. Masłowska's book is an astute observation of the superficiality of a society driven by marketing and commerce.The portrait of the modern world painted by Dorota Masłowska isn't a flattering one. It is a world full of shrieks and yells, guffaws and snickers, broken heels and beer bottles, popping champagne corks, cocaine sniffed off of toilets and the rubbery snap of condoms. The hectic, chaotic freedoms of the weekend are considered a just reward for the toil of the work week - even if it leads to making a total idiot of oneself, enduring bodily harm and falling asleep with one's head in the toilet. The observation of her generation's feeble attempts at living a full life - with the candle appropriately burning at both ends - in such a sincere manner gives an honest glimpse at the real-life nature of popular culture, beyond the shiny pages of lifestyle magazines.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
