Description

"Part storybook, part consumer manual, part manifesto, iSHOP You Shop is a guide to becoming a savvy shopper, explaining how we can spot a lemon and addressing why we desire to buy reading commodities in the first place. Using shopping as a metaphor for asking questions about things and buying as a metaphor for making decisions about our lives, Shannon probes the commerce of literacy that seems to paraphrase Descartes' maxim: I shop, therefore, I am."--Jacket.
