United States (Revised Translation)

About This Novel
As a thinker and master of postmodernism, Baudrillard did not understand the conceptual United States from documentary materials. He spent his time in the deserts, mountains, highways, Los Angeles, Safeway supermarkets, and depressed towns in the United States instead of the lecture halls of universities. "America" is a cultural criticism of the United States from the perspective of old Europe. Baudrillard expressed his amazing thoughts on the smiles on the faces of Americans everywhere, as well as the popular phenomena such as elections, jogging, break dancing, graffiti, and marathons in the United States. In Baudrillard's eyes, desert culture is the most important feature of American culture, and the vast, pure, uncivilized desert is the backdrop of American cities. America is neither a dream nor reality, it is a hyperreality.
