"THE DISAPPEARANCE OF THE OUTSIDE could only come from Andrei Codrescu: born in Stalinist Romania, exploring the world in the 1960s, now an American poet and commentator. It is part memoir of East and West, part critique of literature from Garcia Marquez to Kundera, and part jeremiad on how both Communism and Consumerism stifle our imagination. What will happen, Codrescu asks, now that the Berlin Wall has been replaced with the Berlin Mall?" [publisher copy] "A remarkable essay--the sort of social-cultural-political analysis the mind longs for when it's been fed for months on Wonder Bread while roaring for raw meat."--The Nation. "Instead of McLuhan's rosily interactive global village, essayist and poet-provocateur Codrescu, National Public Radio commentator, sees emerging a 'new electronic globe' that stifles human creativity, thought and imagination. In 'shopping-mall America,' reality is continually manufactured and people are becoming mere appendages of engines and gadgets. In the totalitarian East, the crude hand of the state intervenes, though Codrescu saw signs of progress during a visit to his native Romania, where TV 'literally woke up the country' as Ceaucescu's execution was aired on screens that the dictator once controlled. Codrescu argues in these acute if alarmist essays for a rebirth of the imagination, with a nod to surrealism and Dada. Kundera, Solzhenitsyn, Burroughs, Kafka, Garcia Marquez and Ted Berrigan are points on his literary compass as he maps a terrain where life seems increasingly devoid of meaning."--Publishers Weekly. "Codrescu means to provoke, and he does. His ideas are worth thinking about. They rile, they ruffle, they excite, they incite."--Washington Post Book World. Pristine paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine. Quite presentable.
