About this book
Rax King uses personal essays to examine cultural tastes often dismissed as tacky. Memories of family, an extravagant grandmother and a childhood talent show introduce the question of who decides what deserves embarrassment. Her subjects extend through shopping malls, popular entertainment and familiar consumer pleasures, connecting judgments about culture with the experiences and attachments behind them.
