A furious hunger : America in the 21st century Bruce Grant Published by Melbourne University Press (1999) |
Book description
A Furious Hunger is a penetrating exploration of America's way of life, its people, its history, its rhetoric, its government and politics, and its arts and popular culture. The author's 'modest intention' is to try to understand the United States better, not as the leader of the Western world, but as itself.
