X Saves the World: How Generation X Got the Shaft But Can Still Keep Everything from Sucking Tapa blanda - 2009
de Jeff Gordinier
Taking off from his controversial "Details" essay Has Generation X Already Peaked? Gordinier conducts an eye-opening journey in his quest to find the essence of X.
Resumen
Read Jeff Gordinier's posts on the Penguin Blog
In this simultaneously hilarious and incisive "manifesto for a generation that's never had much use for manifestos," Gordinier suggests that for the first time since the "Smells Like Teen Spirit"breakthrough of the early 1990s, Gen X has what it takes to rescue American culture from a state of collapse. Over the past twenty years, the so-called "slackers"have irrevocably changed countless elements of our culture-from the way we watch movies to the way we make sense of a cracked political process to the way the whole world does business.

Reseñas en medios
"I loved this book. . . . It's impassioned, very quick on its feet, dense with all the right allusions, funny, and in the end actually very moving."
-Nick Hornby
"Ever wonder what became of Generation X, those ironic slackers wedged between the paunchy, tie-dyed boomers and their smug offspring, the millennials? Gordinier's first-person manifesto starts with a thumbnail sketch of '90s disillusionment and ends with a passionate call for social activism."
