The third part is great, his insight into the Regan administration as theatrics is dead-on and applies to Trump even more. More applicable and relevant in 2016 than in the mid-1980s.

The final chapter should be skipped because it's continental postmodernist babble.

Overall a persuasive take on American society from the Postmodernist continental perspective, and yet he wasn't able to reach escape velocity of the constraints of his own methodology.

Some fun bits in the beginning, but gets exceedingly tedious as it drags on. A few good lines throughout.

Geoff Dyer

In the spirit of Tocqueville, a French philosopher traveled America and recorded a collection of travelers tales that provides insight into the country that dominates the world, in a new edition with an additional introduction. Reprint.
