Mr. Cantor lectured a Literature of British Empire class I took as a UVA undergrad in the 90's. I wish he'd taught my Popular Fiction class instead. (I was compelled to take that class to fulfill my "nontraditional" requirement.) I'll be interested to read this book.

4.0

And enjoyable & thought provoking read! It has some limitations having been published in 2001, as does any references to pop culture, but uses the four TV shows to great effect in posing observations on globalization & localization versus the nation-state regarding the USA.
