Overview

'The Changing Face of Consumerism' could be considered to be the equivalent of Roland Barthes' 'Mythologies' for the Facebook / Credit Crunch generation. Based on a series of blog posts penned between 2007 and 2013, 'The Changing Face of Consumerism' charts one man's experience of a rapidly evolving consumer culture during the credit crunch and recession years. The Changing Face of Consumerism presents a snapshot of an eventful time in modern history, from the demise of MySpace and the local record store, to the rise of the Kindle and the resurgent popularity of home-brewed beer. Ponderous, insightful, wry and sometimes splenetic, Nosnibor's writing is sharp and keenly observed, making The Changing Face of Consumerism an essential read for anyone with an interest in the effects of late capitalism on day-today life.
