When Homeward Bound first appeared in 1988 it forever changed the way we understand Cold War America Previously scholars understood the post-World War II era as a time when Americans turned away from politics to enjoy the fruits of peace & prosperity after decades of depression & war while their leaders remained preoccupied with the Soviet threat & the dangers of the Atomic Age Homeward Bound challenged the idea of an apolitical private arena demonstrating that the Atomic Age & the Cold War were not merely the concerns of experts & policy makers but infused American life on every level from the boardroom to the bedroom As Elaine Tyler May argues the official foreign policy of "containment" toward the Soviet Union had a domestic corollary in which the perceived dangers of the age--nuclear war communist subversion consumer excess sexual experimentation & women's emancipation--were "contained" within the family an institution now expected to fulfill its members hopes & dreams for security & the good life in the midst of a frightening world " Domestic containment" is now the standard interpretation of the era & Homeward Bound has become a classic This new edition

Includes::
an updated introduction & a new epilogue examining the legacy of Cold War obsessions with personal & family security in the present day

Homesick For Another World

There's something eerily unsettling about Ottessa Moshfegh's stories something almost dangerous while also being delightful - and often even weirdly hilarious Her characters are all unsteady on their feet; all yearning for connection and betterment in very different ways but each of them seems destined to be tripped up by their own baser impulses What makes these stories so moving is the emotional balance that Moshfegh achieves - the way she exposes the limitless range of self-deception that human beings can employ while at the same time infusing the grotesque and outrageous with tenderness and compassion The flesh is weak; the timber is crooked; people are cruel to each other and stupid and hurtful but beauty comes from strange sources and the dark energy surging through these stories is
oddly and powerfully invigorating One of the most gifted and exciting young writers in America she shows us uncomfortable things and makes us look at them forensically - until we find suddenly that we are really looking at ourselves
