Es gibt keine Grenzen mehr: Das glaubt man jedenfalls am Beginn der Neunzigerjahre. Die Berliner Mauer fällt, die Welt rückt zusammen, und sie vernetzt sich. Die ersten Knoten des World Wide Web werden geknüpft, die ersten Suchmaschinen programmiert. In Berlin wird Techno zum Soundtrack der Wiedervereinigung, Neonfarben beherrschen das Bild, Piercings und Tätowierungen erobern den Mainstream, das Arschgeweih gerät zum stilistischen Symbol der Dekade. Aber unter der heiteren Oberfläche brechen alte Konflikte auf, Gespenster aus der Vergangenheit kehren zurück.

Es sieht nicht alles schlimm aus in den achtziger Jahren. Aber vieles. Es ist das Jahrzehnt der explodierenden Dauerwellen und Pornoschnauzbärte, der aufgepumpten Schulterpolsterjacketts und schrillen Herumprotzerei; in den Achtzigern werden die Yuppies zu Vorreitern einer neuen Egoistenkultur. Doch gleichzeitig herrscht die Angst vor der Apokalypse, vor dem Atomtod und der Umweltzerstörung; die Menschen sehnen sich nach Utopien und Zukunft, nach neuer Gemeinschaft und Wärme.

This book challenges that oversight, assembling and foregrounding some of the best literary critical work by scholars trying to move the needle on these novels to reflect their importance to twenty-first-century literary culture.

There may be no more joyous iteration in all of music than 1980s hard rock. It was an era where the musical and cultural ideals of rebellion and freedom of the great rock 'n' roll of the '50s, '60s, and '70s were taken to dizzying heights of neon excess. Attention to songcraft, showmanship, and musical virtuosity (especially in the realm of the electric guitar) were at an all-time high, and radio and MTV were delivering the goods en masse to the corn-fed children of America and beyond.
