Product details

The New Yorker Eliot Weinberger is one of the most dedicated publicists in the USA. His favorite adversary is George W. Bush, but his love belongs to the Babylonian tangle of cultural signs from all over the world and all times. For years, he has been writing his essays, which are prose pieces. These texts possess great poetic beauty. Seemingly unrelated, these fragments from 4,000 years of natural and human history deal with the wind, whirlpools, people named Chang, Mohammed and the stars, William Blake's tiger, Noah's descendants in Iraq and Iran, wrens, and mathematical music in the Peruvian desert. Together, they create a magnificent, global picture in which the word globalization suddenly takes on a completely different, stranger, and yet warmer meaning.
