Literarybuffalo: Strange Days Indeed
After lurking on my list of books to read for a couple of years, Francis Wheen’s Strange Days Indeed finally came home with me from the library recently. Well worth the read.
Subtitled The 1970s: The Golden Age of Paranoia, Wheen’s semi-casual stroll through the the decade just before I started to become aware of the world around me was fascinating. The author gives emphasis to America and Britain, but works in an adequate sampling of paranoia and conspiracy from other parts of the globe to support his theme. All of it recounted in a very engaging manner.
