Description:
What makes a cultural phenomenon truly great? For starters, says David Kirby, it must have been embraced repeatedly over time by both the elite and the general public. In Ultra-Talk Kirby looks at a number of "king-sized cultural monuments," revealing at the same time his eclectic critical interest in topics as varied as auto racing, Dante, folk music, food, Leonardo da Vinci, films, poetry, religion, striptease, television, and the internet.
