[English review + Reseña en Español] American Rococo: Essays On the Edge, by Isham Cook. Published by Magic Theater Books, pages. Genre: Non Fiction / Essay. American Rococo is a compendium of essays written around diverse topics: 1) Smart phones, teenage sexuality and the circular punishment industry in America/5(16). Ranging across centuries and continents, Isham Cook's far-flung essays, whether discoursing on the most radical or homespun of topics, are guided by the notion of the "edge." The edge represents the limits of conventional understanding, the zone beyond stereotypes and groupthink; it is where received ideas are recast in fresh and striking ways. All of these opinions and a lot more comprise American Rococo: Essays On the Edge, a collection of thirteen essays that take a look at history as well as current culture. Cook starts out strong in his first one, “American Talisman”, as he criticizes our “perverted and schizophrenic” society that sexualizes our children and then punishes them for following our leads.
