It argues that representations of the past and projections of the future are not isolated commentaries of a romantic yesterday or grand visions of tomorrow. Rather, they evoke the preoccupations and anxieties of the present, whether it is the skepticism of nostalgic kitsch (\u003cem\u003eThe Royal Tenenbaums\u003c\/em\u003e) or the projected post-millennial fears of disappearing histories and mutating pasts, manufactured memories and loss of identity (\u003cem\u003eEternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003e2046).\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christina Lee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1441151311\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781441151315\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Continuum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/05\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.10w x 0.70d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Christina Lee","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47965223321855,"sku":"9781441151315","price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9fb11806-a7d2-47f5-8bf2-53bb26a39e21.jpg?v=1767279255","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/violating-time-christina-lee-9781441151315","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
