by Chuck Klosterman (Author), Chuck Klosterman (Author)
With an exhaustive knowledge of popular culture and an effortless ability to spin brilliant prose out of unlikely subject matter, Klosterman attacks the entire spectrum of postmodern America: reality TV, Internet porn, breakfast cereal, serial killers, Pamela Anderson, literary Jesus freaks, and the real difference between apples and oranges (of which there is none). "Sex, Drugs and Coca Puffs" is ostensibly about movies, sport, television, music, books, video games and kittens, but really it's about us: All of us.

Book Overview: Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs, by Chuck Klosterman, is a rebellious and entertaining cult read from a writer who truly speaks for a generation.
The reigning Kasparov of pop culture wits-matching.
Quintessential Klosterman -- sometimes exasperating but almost always engaging.
One of the brightest pieces of pop analysis to appear this century.
Maddeningly smart and funny...[Klosterman's] good humor, compassion, and raw associative powers put him in the same league as Nick Hornby and Douglas Coupland, though he's a more tenacious critic than either.
