Balsamic Dreams: a Short but Self-Important History of the Baby Boomer Generation
- List Price: $23.00
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Henry Holt & Company
- Publish date: 06/01/2001
In Balsamic Dreams, Queenan chronicles the evolution of his generation and critiques its current condition in chapters such as:
-- J'Accuse: a bold indictment of the boomers' greatest transgressions, past and present
-- Ten Days that Rocked the World: in which Queenan identifies the precise moments things went awry (#1: the release of Carole King's Tapestry)
-- Careful, the Staff Might Hear You: an examination of the unspoken, nefarious alliance between Baby Boomers and Generation X
-- American History: The B-Sides: an alternative version of the Republic as played out with Baby Boomers in the starring roles
A measured (if a tad cranky) assessment of a generation whose greatest sin lies in confusing lifestyle for life and pop culture for culture, Balsamic Dreams is fresh, funny, and irresistible.
