Wherever he is, Wilsey captures his surroundings with the precision of a photographer and the raw grace of a skateboarder (he's an amateur practitioner of both arts). And his eye always finds an unrivaled intensity of detail: here, and only here, will a reader be privy to the Dostoyevskian whiff of Marfa's fugitive underbelly, the unsung delights of a skater rag's cooking column, the exact amount of time elapsed since the soundwaves of a long-lost, legendary World Cup broadcast passed out of our solar system.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese essays?originally published in \u003ci\u003eVanity Fair, GQ, McSweeney's\u003c\/i\u003e, and elsewhere?comprise nearly fifteen years of Wilsey's most vital work on the glory and the misery, the beauty and absurdity of contemporary America.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"McSweeney's","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47595928912023,"sku":"9781940450179","price":1649.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781940450179.webp?v=1774991743","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/more-curious-9781940450179","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
