The Culture of Narcissism

American Life in an Age of Diminishing Expectations

De: Christopher Lasch

Narrado por: Barry Press

When The Culture of Narcissism was first published, it was clear that Christopher Lasch had identified something important: what was happening to American society in the wake of the decline of the family over the last century. The book quickly became a best seller. This edition includes a new afterword, "The Culture of Narcissism Revisited."

A Still Timely Analysis of American Culture

A dull narration (with many errors from the original text) of a still timely social analysis of American culture today.

Christopher Lasch displays real insight into the human condition.

Do not skip the afterward as Lasch clarifies some of the main concepts in his book.

good book

ok do you have to turn on the power of the most important thing is that the eight motor place.
the only thing that you can get inside if you need to

How was this written in 1979???

I have listened to this audiobook several times now. I find it’s insights invaluable, especially when educating youth and young adults, which is one of my professions. Highly recommended.

Unfortunate.

It would have probably been best, if this book could have been written by someone who wasn’t actively affected by and throughly comfortable with being narcissistic.

Brilliant study

This book is so right to the point and so important for today’s understanding of the life we live.
