Hardback. Zustand: Like New. NATIONAL BESTSELLER * In this nostalgic and raucous collection of sixteen original essays, Ira Madison III--critic, television writer, and host of the beloved Keep It podcast--combines memoir and criticism to offer a brand-new pop-culture manifesto. "This is the most fun I've had reading all year.

It gave you an entire worldview.

In Pure Innocent Fun, Madison explores the key cultural moments that inspired his career as a critic and guided his coming of age as a Black gay man in Milwaukee. In this hilarious, full-throttle trip through the '90s and 2000s, he recounts learning about sex from Buffy the Vampire Slayer; facing the most heartbreaking election of his youth (not George W. Bush's win, but Jennifer Hudson losing American Idol); and how never getting his driver's license in high school made him just like Cher Horowitz in Clueless: "a virgin who can't drive." Brimming with a profound love for a bygone culture and alternating between irreverence and heartfelt insight, Pure Innocent Fun, like all the best products of pop culture, will leave you entertained and surprisingly enlightened.…
