A bitingly funny grand tour of our culture of excessfrom an award-winning humorist.
WhetherDavid Rakoffis contrasting the elegance of one of the last flights of the supersonic Concorde with the good-times-and-chicken-wings populism of Hooters Air; working as a cabana boy at a South Beach hotel; or traveling to a private island off the coast of Belize to watch a soft-core video shoot where he is provided with his very own personal manservant rarely have greed, vanity, selfishness, and vapidity been so mercilessly skewered. Somewhere along the line, our healthy self-regard has exploded into obliterating narcissism; our manic getting and spending have now become celebrated as moral virtues. Simultaneously a Wildean satireand a plea for a little human decency, Don t Get Too Comfortable shows that far from being bobos in paradise, we re in a special circle of gilded-age hell."
