Reflections on Burning Man (Counterculture Series)

Edición de la obra AfterBurn

"The Burning Man Festival is a week-long spasm of radical self-expression held annually just before Labor Day. The climax of the festival comes when attendees erupt into cheers and applause at the burning of a forty-foot-tall human effigy described as "part pre-technological idol and part post-technological puppet."" "AfterBurn features ten essayists, each addressing a specific aspect of the festival, from the recruitment and management of volunteers, to the artistic and cultural context of the modern conception of Utopia."--Jacket.
