reviewed The Great American Plunder of Persia's Antiquities, 1925-1941 on May 20, 2011 The Great American Plunder of Persia's Antiquities, 1925-1941
Authenticity is a cultural creation. As such, the varieties of desires for authenticity are often complex and paradoxical. Lindholm takes us on a tour of many kinds of authenticity from the really real country music to identifying the core of one's ethnicity through DNA testing to the complexities of seeing through the veil of authenticity itself.
This book is very much worth the read. It'll have you reevaluate your identity and will simultaneously give you an appreciation for the cultural complexities of the world.
