Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs

Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs

by Chuck Klosterman (Author), Chuck Klosterman (Author)

Synopsis

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.

Media Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle

The reigning Kasparov of pop culture wits-matching.


GQ

Quintessential Klosterman -- sometimes exasperating but almost always engaging.


The Onion a.v. club

One of the brightest pieces of pop analysis to appear this century.


The Washington Post

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.
