But no one has fully probed its cultural roots. Until now. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and bestselling author Susan Faludi brilliantly demonstrates how our culture's seemingly inexplicable response was actually a reflex set centuries deep in the American grain. Her analysis of what went on in the months and years after 9\/11 will shock even those who thought they knew the full measure of that tragedy (as her account of the post-9\/11 media marketing of flight-suit superheroes, cowering security moms, Jessica-Lynchesque helpless girls, and Daniel Boone-wannabe politicians will outrage and amuse). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA masterwork of historical interpretation and a Rosetta stone for deciphering the ongoing spectacle of American politics, journalism, and culture, \u003ci\u003eThe Terror Dream \u003c\/i\u003eflushes from hiding a forceful dynamic that disfigures our lives even in times of normalcy, and that, unless it is confronted, will send us reeling in a wrong direction the next time tragedy strikes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susan Faludi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0312428006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780312428006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martins Press-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/02\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/21\/2008 pg. 26","brand":"Susan Faludi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946434953471,"sku":"9780312428006","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_72f09c8a-374c-45e0-af3a-554e8883970c.jpg?v=1681513130","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-terror-dream-susan-faludi-9780312428006","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
