More about the book

The book explores the ironic journey of the Baby Boomer Generation, contrasting their idealistic beginnings at iconic events like Woodstock with their current consumer-driven existence. It questions how this generation, once committed to teaching their children well, has produced offspring that embody darker traits. Through humor and sharp critique, Queenan examines the pitfalls of equating pop culture with genuine culture and highlights the absurdities of modern life, including an unexpected fascination with porcini mushrooms.
