"It was always a pretend conversation."

i will admit that i picked up this book purely because of the introduction written by Sufjan Stevens. what can i say, i’m a sufanatic (just thought of that right now - i am a GENIUS). anyway.

Sufjan’s introduction was great, but the best essay by far is the one written by Scott Carrier (originally published here) about the complexities and contradictions of Burma, by way of profiling the country’s most popular rock band, Iron Cross.

i can’t say that i agree with how he ends his essay (interestingly enough, the online version has a milder, less offensive ending), but it’s worth a read nonetheless. even more so given the current situation there. i only hope that the military junta will come to its senses and accept foreign aid, if only for the sake of its citizens.
