Description
Richard Neville, political satirist jailed after the Oz magazine censorship trials in the 1960s, mocks a culture that sees the world as either "a target market or a target"—a culture that reveals a "disturbing identification with Imperial Rome."
Neville provoked outrage for his -essay describing the United States as a nation out of control and "bent on serving its interests at any cost." Now, following September 11, Neville warns the "wounded Goliath is on the rampage," stuck in a "perilous psychic gridlock of us/them, good/evil."
