A study of "bad taste" in urban life, particularly in the North of England during the first half of the 20th century. Looks at some of the ways suburban dwellers can assert their "identity against encroaching respectability." From the Dust Jacket: "The main theme of their book is the extraordinary quality to be found in the leisure culture of the major cities: a popular aesthetic, made up of scraps and pieces of dead styles, clichéd ornaments and plundered pastiche, revamped and revitalized with startling vulgar vitality. The authors believe that this language of the commonplace, often called 'bad taste,' may reveal far more about the true nature of modern society." . First Printing of the First Edition.
