Book excerpt: "The minutiae of daily life - paintings and movie posters, dime-store novels and daily newspapers, figurines and mannequins, decals and stenciled graffiti - here are laid out as artifacts pointing to a bigger vision of the world as we know it. Patriotism, consumerism, censorship, nostalgia for a simpler past coupled with a desire for a less complicated present...touching on all these themes, Bergerson's quietly ironic but empathetic tone encourages the reader to imagine how our own ordinary surroundings might appear in a hundred or more years' time."--BOOK JACKET.
