520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Apocalypse Postpone is the anguished portrait of Western culture on the brink of self-destruction, by one of the world's foremost writers. With consummate ease, Umberto Eco provides simultaneously both a perfect attack on and an apology for mass culture. Exploring such exotica as la Cicciolina, Charlie Brown, George Orwell, Fellini, Chinese and American comics, as well as appraising illiteracy, the state of the counterculture and his own reaction to the media's consumption of his work, he exposes contemporary mass culture both as mankind's nemesis and as its salvation.
