Jeff Gordinier at Books Inc. in the Marina April 8, 2008

Attention Generation X'ers! Come as you are and prove that the 90's was the greatest decade, and prove that you're not a bunch of slackers, by showing up to hear Jeff Gordinier, as he conducts an eye-opening journey in his quest to find the essence of the generation in his book: X Saves the World: How Generation X Got the Shaft But Can Still Keep Everything from Sucking.

Publishers Weekly says:
Gordinier has an easygoing style and a comprehensive knowledge of pop culture gleaned from a career writing for Entertainment Weekly and editing Details magazine, and this might be the reason the book sometimes feels like a collection of essays. Sequences on the rise of Nirvana and the burst of the dot-com bubble are ably narrated. And Gordinier does find a fresh perspective in discussions of recent phenomena such as YouTube and American Idol and their relationship to Generation X.
