Synopsis

Shields, David. Remote. New York, Alfred A. Knopf, 1996. 14 cm x 20 cm. 203 pages. Several black and white photographs throughout. Original Hardcover with illustrated dustjacket. Very good+ condition with only minor signs of external wear. Signed by the author. In this truly one-of-a-kind book, the author/narrator - a representative, in extremis, of contemporary American obsession with beauty, celebrity, transmitted image - finds himself suspended, fascinated, in the remoteness of our new wall-to-wall mediascape. It is a remoteness that both perplexes and enthralls him. (from front flap) David Sheilds reads his own life - reads our life - as if it were an allegory about remoteness and finds persuasive, hilarious, heartbreaking evidence wherever he goes. (from back flap)
