~ Trade Paperback Pulphead: Essays In Pulphead, John Jeremiah Sullivan takes readers on an exhilarating tour of our popular, unpopular, and at times completely forgotten culture. S imultaneously channeling the gonzo energy of Hunter S. Thompson and the wit and insight of Joan Didion, Sullivan shows us (with a laidback, erudite Southern charm that’s all his own) how we really (no, really) live now. "Pulphead is the best, and most important, collection of magazine writing since [David Foster] Wallace's A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again … Sullivan's writing is a bizarrely coherent, novel, and generous pastiche of the biblical, the demotic, the regionally gusty and the erudite.” -- New York Times Book Review Show more
