FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Book signing at GR2
Richard Rushfield.
Thursday, March 4, 2010, 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. GR2 2062 Sawtelle Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90025 gr2.net (310) 445-9276
Giant Robot is pleased to present author Richard Rushfield, who will be reading and signing his new book, Don't Follow Me, I'm Lost.
Rushfield is a reporter who has written for the LA Times, Vanity Fair, and Gawker. In 1986, he traveled from sunny California to enroll in Hampshire College, an enchanted land in the woods of Western Massachusetts, where punks and hippies lived side by side in a time before goals, ambitions, exercise, relationships, or responsibilities. The Venice, CA resident's new novel retells his stories.
Don’t Follow Me, I’m Lost takes us to a campus populated by deadheads, club kids, poets, and insomniac filmmakers, at a time when America saw the rise of punk and grunge alongside neo-conservatism, earnest calls for political correctness, and Take Back the Night vigils. Shunned by all of the school’s reigning subcultures, Rushfield joins the most hated clique on campus, the Supreme Dicks, navigates a dating scene where to express interest in anything is social suicide, and mostly avoids class where hippie professors blather on about post-structuralism. Culminating in a mad clash of slackers and yuppies, Don’t Follow Me, I’m Lost captures a watershed moment for American youth in one hilarious and unforgettable trip.
Giant Robot was born as a Los Angeles-based magazine about Asian, Asian-American, and new hybrid culture in 1994, but has evolved into a full-service pop culture provider with shops and galleries in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York City, as well as an online equivalent.
The reading and signing will take place on March 4 from 6:00 - 8:00. For more information about the event, GR2, or Giant Robot magazine, please contact: Eric Nakamura Giant Robot Owner/Publisher eric@giantrobot.com (310) 479-7311 ###
