'There is no more pop culture,' declares Alex Kazemi, whose provocative debut novel examines the lives of several boys coming of age at the turn of the 21st century.
SHADE: I thought that I picked up on that pretty early on. When they’re at the summer camp, the level of saturation was just so absurd. It’s a bit disconcerting for the reader, and that struck me as deliberate.
KAZEMI: A lot of things were brewing. When we look back, we forget all of those things, because for some fucked-up reason, we truly want to think it was just N*SYNC and Britney and Smile and TRL. And even that is very grim, if you re-watch it. SHADE: I mean, this was really the last era of mass pop culture before everything got super fractured.
KAZEMI: It was extremely heartbreaking for me going through the anti-culture stuff and watching disenfranchised kids talking about loving these type of bands and seeing that there was a level of exploitation going around, from the corporations and from the artists, that a traumatized young girl gets into satanism and Manson and all that type of stuff. There’s no level of healing there.
