167 - The Nineties by Chuck Klosterman

In Episode 167, Gen and Jette discuss their latest book club pick, The Nineties by Chuck Klosterman. As children of the nineties ourselves, we loved revisiting this decade through Klosterman's pop culture lens. Show Notes One of our earliest episodes—episode 9!—was also a Chuck Klosterman book. We read his essay collection Eating the Dinosaur and absolutely loved it. This might be our longest episode. There was so much jam-packed into this book we could have talked about each chapter for an hour. Our next episode is a hangout episode. We'll be talking about everything we've been up to lately. Later this month we'll be doing another Page to Screen episode about Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer and the film adaptation For our next book club pick we'll be reading Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler. It's a dystopian novel that takes place in 2024, in a world ravaged by climate change. Gen's been meaning to read it for years, and decided it's finally time.
