What does a middle-class democracy look like when it comes apart? When, after forty years of economic triumph, America’s winners persuade themselves that they owe nothing to the rest of the country? In this collection of interlocking essays, Thomas Frank takes us on a wideranging tour through present-day America, showing us a society in the late stages of disintegration and describing the worlds of both the winners and the losers. Brought together in a single volume, these accounts of folly and exploitation are unified by Frank’s distinctive voice, sardonic wit, and anti-orthodox perspective. He captures a society where every status signifier is hollow, where the allure of mobility is just another con game, and where rebellion too often yields nothing. For those who despair of the future of our country and of reason itself, Rendezvous with Oblivion is a booster shot of energy, reality, and moral outrage.
