The Big Rewind: A Memoir Brought to You by Pop Culture

Autor Nathan Rabin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 iul 2010
Nathan Rabin viewed pop culture as a life-affirming form of escape throughout his childhood and adolescence. As an adult, pop culture became his life. Head writer for "A.V. Club "for more than a decade, Rabin uses specific books, songs, albums, films, and television shows as springboards for dissecting his Dickensian life story in his acclaimed memoir "The Big Rewind."
Rabin writes movingly and hilariously about how pop culture helped save him from suicidal despair, institutionalization, and parental abandonment during a childhood that sent him ricocheting from a mental hospital to a foster home to a group home for emotionally disturbed adolescents. A fun book about depression, "The Big Rewind "is ultimately a touching narrative of a motherless child s search for family and acceptance, and a darkly comic valentine to Rabin s lovable, hard-luck dad.
With comic dissertations on everything from "The Simpsons "to "The Great Gatsby, "and from "Grey Gardens "to Dr. Dre, "The Big Rewind "chronicles Rabin s improbable yet all-too-true journey through life, and its fortuitous intersections with the dizzyingly wonderful world of entertainment."
