アメリカ建国時の理念と制度は、トランプ政権に打ち砕かれた。しかもその出現は予言されていた。フェイクニュースやプロパガンダがはびこり、客観的事実が消えゆく世界で、私たちはどう生きるべきか。不穏な時代に精神的な立ち位置を示そうとする、ピューリッツァー賞(批評部門)受賞者としても著名な文芸評論家の話題書、待望の邦訳。

All Points North society & culture and all the ways thatAll Points North is part memoir and part excursion. Charting the rugged and uneven terrain of a writer's formative years from tax problems to probation to American tours, football to family to running away to Iceland Simon Armitage explores growing up and being Northern. It's about humour, language, writing, film, houses, homes, time wasters, one loose tyre, you, me and all points in between.
