Waiting for the Barbarians
Used Book in Good Condition
With invective all the more deadly for its grace and wit, Lewis Lapham, editor of Harper€s magazine, presents a portrait of a feckless American establishment gone large in the stomach and soft in the head. This acerbic commentary on the insouciance of the monied ruling class concludes with a forewarning piece where Lapham looks at the fate of indolent ruling classes throughout history.
