Pop Tart

Pop Tart
By:Liz Langley
Published on 1999-01 by Octavo

Humor columnist Liz Langley's observations about hillbilly vampires, Farrah Fawcett, confessional TV, and America's other bizarre fixations and fads are assembled in this wry look at pop culture. |Little Amish Crackhead|, a delicate piece of social commentary prompted by an obscure news item about two Amish men arrested for dealing cocaine to a gang of bikers, exposes America's love for seeing its own stereotypes trumped. Within the pages of Pop Tart, no cow is sacred -- marriage, Southern Baptists, Barbie, the Virgin Mary; even golf is subject to ridicule: |Golf originated in Scotland, also the birthplace of haggis, the tam-o'-shanter, and Sheena Easton. The motives of any people who eat sheep intestines, wear head pom-poms, and unleashed the singer of 'Sugar Walls' should be considered highly suspect|. Amusing and entertaining observations about Hugh Grant and hookers, Kenny Loggins and colonics, and Martha Stewart's resemblance to the Stepford Wives abound in this collection.
