Bayan, a self-described "kinder, gentler cynic," wrote these seriously funny commentary pieces between 1998 and 2002, as we transitioned from an age of frivolity to an age of terror and disgruntlement. On one side of the divide we had Seinfeld, New Age crystal shops and goat-cheese pizza with arugula; on the other side came the dotcom crash, George W. Bush, 9/11 and worldwide jihad.</p><p>All the pieces in this lively collection (the second of three projected volumes, each with a different theme) are gathered from Bayans vintage website, The Cynics Sanctuary, as well as his syndicated column, "Some Cynical Guy." Contents include "Great Affectations," "Adventures in Downsizing," "The Cynics Inaugural Address," "Selling Your Soul on eBay," "The Museum of Discarded Names," Fanatics on Parade" and over 40 more essays that, taken together, chronicle the slow-motion cultural shipwreck that ended the yuppie heyday of the 90s.</p><p>Witty, irreverent, heartfelt and stylishly written, "Lifestyles of the Doomed" will leave you laughing and shaking your head in commiseration. Its the kind of book youll want to dip into again and again.</p>...1915461Lifestyles of the Doomed (Bayans Tirades: Volume 2)5656https://www.gandhi.com.mx/lifestyles-of-the-doomed-bayan-s-tirades-volume-2-1/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1375955/ed390768-abba-4267-bc7e-6c6f3f0d633b.jpg?v=638337982499100000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20169780991359912_W3siaWQiOiJhMzQ5NGE1Yi05ZTlhLTQzMTEtYmI5MS1lNWRkOGQ0YjZhMjUiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjU2LCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjo1NiwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6IklwcCIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMDUtMTZUMDM6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780991359912_<p>Lifestyles of the Doomed: American Follies & Afflictions at the Turn of the Millennium (Bayans Tirades, Volume 2)</p><p>Let the author of "The Cynics Dictionary" and "Extremely Dark Chocolates" lead you on a bitterly amusing journey back to the turn of the millennium.
