"One of America's leading critics, Gary Indiana has written essays on nearly every aspect of American culture. Utopia's Debris comprises selections of his very best work from the past fifteen years, revealing him to be an enormously acute, frequently scabrous, and always brilliant observer of the best and worst America has to offer."--BOOK JACKET.
