Twilight Zones: The Hidden Life of Cultural Images from Plato to O.J. Paperback - 1999
by Susan Bordo
Considering everything from Nike ads, amaciated models, and surgically altered breasts to the culture wars and the O.J. Simpson trial, author Susan Bordo deciphers the hidden life of cultural images and the impact they have on our lives. With compassion, honesty, and intelligence, Bordo questions the basis of our concepts of reality. 31 b&w photos.
First line
I was stunned when Mel Gibson's Braveheart won the Oscar for best picture of the year.
From the rear cover
"These fresh, invigorating readings of everything from Hollywood movies, commercial jingles, eating disorders, O.J. and Bob Packwood reveal the illusions from which we construct our cultural lives. Bordo is a dazzling tour guide to a world where images are more real than we seem to be. These are essays both witty and wise, personal and political, analytically brilliant yet often deeply moving."--Michael Kimmel, author of Manhood in America
