Descriere magazin:
A reissue of Ian F. Svenonius\'s cult-classic debut essay collection, including brand-new writing in this expanded edition.Everything author-slash-punk-icon Ian Svenonius says is interesting, and this book of satirical essays--originally published in 2006, now back in print--proves it...You\'ll laugh until you cry.--Washington PostIan F. Svenonius\'s The Psychic Soviet was first published before the iPhone, before the cronut, and long before our culture thought to ask the Svenonius-like question of whether it was the CIA who actually wrote the Scorpions\' \'Wind of Change.\' Akashic Books just reissued...this short, offbeat, and very funny collection of essays.--WashingtonianAs entertaining as books come.--Exclusive MagazineIn a sense the book is Mr. Svenonius\'s love letter to the good old days of do-it-yourself punk concerts, though it\'s cleverly disguised as a series of Marxian essays.--New York TimesThe pocket-sized book--given Svenonius\'s communism infatuation, the parallel to Mao\'s Little Red Book is no mistake--contains well-thought-out arguments on a variety of subjects, from vampires to the origins of punk rock. It\'s often funny, but never in a self-consciously ironic way. --Washington PostIan Svenonius has come a long way since Sassy Magazine first dubbed him the \'Sassiest Boy in America\' in 1991. The DC singer has never been anything less than political to the extreme. --Village VoiceA new, expanded collection of essays and articles from one of the mainstays of the Washington, DC, underground rock and roll scene, The Psychic Soviet is Ian F. Svenonius\'s groundbreaking first book of writings. The selections are written in a lettered yet engaging style, filled with parody and biting humor that subvert capitalist culture, and cover such topics as the ascent of the DJ as a star, the cosmic depression that followed the defeat of the USSR, how Seinfeld caused the bankruptcy of modern pop culture, and the status of rock and roll as a religion. The pocket-sized book is bound with a durable bright-pink plastic cover, recalling the aesthetics of Mao\'s Little Red Book, and perfect for carrying into the fray of street battle, classroom, or lunch-counter argument.
