Winner of France's 2004 Prix de Flore for his memoir The Romanian: Story of an Obsession, Bruce Benderson has gained international respect for his controversial opinions and original take on contemporary society. In this collection of essays, Benderson directs his exceptional powers of observation toward some of the most debated, as well as some of the most neglected, issues of our day. In Sex and Isolation, readers will encounter eccentric street people, Latin American literary geniuses, a French cabaret owner, a transvestite performer, and many other unusual characters; they'll visit subcultures rarely described in writing and be treated to Benderson's iconoclastic opinions about culture in former and contemporary urban society. Whether proposing new theories about the relationship between art, entertainment, and sex, analyzing the rise of the Internet and the disappearance of public space, or considering how religion and sexual identity interact, each essay demonstrates sharp wit, surprising insight and some startling intellectual positions. This is the first American volume of Benderson's collected essays, featuring both new work and some of his best-known writings, including his famous essay Toward the New Degeneracy.Binding Type: Paperback

Light Weight CarryAll
Color: Brown
Being Retired I'm always home and throughout my day i settle in different spots in my house to do different tasks or activities like exercise. I found myself either carrying a bunch of small things from room to room or having to walk all the way back to my previous, I call "perch," to fetch my phone, reading glasses, stylus, pillbox, tumbler of tea, and yes, pen & paper! Now with this catch all, I just load it up in seconds and I'm good to go!!!
