Witty, aphoristic, and never at a loss for a trenchant comment, NPR's muchloved commentator, Andrei Codrescu, has been keeping his American audience abreast of the absurdities of American culture for over ten years. He is known nationally for his regular appearances on "All Things Considered," and now for his recent debut as a film star in the movie version of his own book, Road Scholar. The Romanianborn Codrescu is fast on his way to becoming an American pop icon. In Zombification, Codrescu's NPR essays from 1989 to 1993 have been gathered together here in one volume, where they appear in print for the first time ever.Born in Transylvania, Romania, in 1946, Codrescu emigrated to the United States in 1966. He began then to cast a keen and watchful eye upon his adopted homeland. The essays collected here come directly off the NPR airwaves, and were broadcast during a period in our nation's history that witnessed the collapse of Communism in Eastern Europe and the radical change in American foreign and domestic policy. All of these momentous consciousness shifts have been chronicled through the eyes of Codrescu, an incisive commentator who seems to miss nothing. Ranging from indignation at world indifference toward the new nations of Europe to compassion for the underprivileged of the United States, Codrescu takes the pulse of our time with the exasperated affection and barbed irony for which he is known.The area of Codrescu's concerns is wide, extending beyond world politics to include, for example, whales, dreams, Gypsies, and yes, that weathered institution, Congress. However, the unique voice who transmits these startling words could only be that of the TransylvanianAmerican who has given NPR listeners a sense of 1990s wonder.Zombification is a powerful book by one of America's finest writers.
