Rant Against the Regime

Rezensionen

"Kirk Combe brings welcome clarity and precision to delineating and defining an emergent subgenre of popular and cult-favorite narrative work in print, TV, and cinema. Bringing to bear literary history and theory coupled with political analysis and cultural critique, Combe usefully and often wittily illuminates the relationship between the current socio-political moment and the 'speculative satire' that comments on it."
