An interesting trip down memory lane for me - I was living in Milwaukee as a college freshman and sophomore during 1995, with a summer at home in Iowa in-between. Some of the news events Vowell mentions were on my radar, but most weren't. All of the "alternative rock" stations were in constant rotation for me, plus healthy doses of NPR during any time spent with my parents. In contrast to Vowell's impressions, though, I love all of the NPR voices from that period of time, so she can keep her snide comments on them to herself. :-)

As a book, this is not nearly as polished as Vowell's other work, but one can see her future style in development. I'm amazed she was able to get this published at all at age 25 - imagine the hutzpah it took to even propose it.

Borrowed from MM during isolation.
