Description

In this hilarious work of social commentary, professional iconoclast Queenan shows how a generation with so much promise lost its way by confusing pop culture with culture and mistaking lifestyle for life.

How did a generation that started out at Woodstock and Monterey Pop Concert end up at Crate & Barrel?
How did a generation that promised to 'teach its children well' end up with progeny so evil they could give that kid from "The Omen" a run for his money?
And just what is so fascinating about porcini mushrooms?

From the bestselling author of America and Queenan Country comes a vintage Queenan tirade chronicling the evolution of his own Baby Boomer generation.
