Book Reviews of Planet of the Apes as American Myth: Race, Politics, and Popular Culture
Book Review: APES AS MYTH....AND METAPHOR
Summary: 5 Stars
What an outstanding and comprehensive look at this phenomenal series! Eric has thoroughly researched and written about this particular aspect of American pop culture and its relevance to historical events that has been sorely neglected since Planet of the Apes hit the big screen in 1968. Given the tumultuous era in which the Apes series flourished, it is surprising that Eric was able to squeeze so much information and insight into one little book. Nice, breezy narration. Great wit!Good work, Eric. Hope to see more from you soon!
