[PU: Thomas Dunne Books], 244 p.: Ill. Hardcover with dust jacket. Lediglich der Schutzumschlag ist leicht berieben. Sonst aber ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar/ good and clean copy. - A fascinating study of Edward Hoppers iconic Nighthawks painting and its deep significance for understanding American culture - STAYING UP MUCH TOO LATE discusses the painting Nighthawks and the painter Edward Hopper and their central impor-tance to twentieth-century American culture. Topics include individualism, New York City, Arthur “Weegee” Fellig, diners, pornography, capitalism, advertising, cigarettes, American philosophy, World War II, Gravitys Rainbow, Blade Runner, Pulp Fiction, Russ Meyer, R. Crumb, David Lynch, and film noir. What links these together is the painting’s pessimistic take on American culture, which it also seems to epitomize. Despite its desolate feel, Nighthawks has become a familiär icon, repro-duced on posters and postcards, in movies and on television shows. But Nighthawks is more than just a masterful painting. It is a portal into the rarely acknowledged but pervasive dark side of the American psyche. GORDON THEISEN was bornin Queens, New York. He has worked as a landscaper, dishwasher, barback, cashier, library clerk, construction worker, telemar-keter, taxi driver, teacher, proofreader, and freelance writer. He holds a Ph.D. in English literature from the State University of New York at Binghamton. He lives in Carrboro, North Carolina, with his wife, two-year-old son, and his wife's cat.
