Synopsis:

Sex, Drugs and Cocoa Puffs is ostensibly about movies, sports, television, music, books, video games and kittens ... but really, it's about us. All of us.

Klosterman realizes late at night, in the moment before he sleeps, 'In and of itself, nothing really matters. What matters is that nothing is ever "in and of itself"'.

Countless writers and artists have spoken for a generation, but no one has done it quite like Chuck Klosterman - with an exhaustive knowledge of popular culture and a seemingly effortless ability to spin brilliant prose out of unlikely subject matter. Whether deconstructing Saved by the Bell episodes or the artistic legacy of Billy Joel, the symbolic importance of Empire Strikes Back or the Celtics/Lakers rivalry of the 1980s, Chuck will make you think, he'll make you laugh, and he'll drive you insane - usually all at once.
