Thirty years ago today, the book Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture was published. It gave a generation their identity and their label, even though by definition they do not have an identity, label, or definition. I read it the summer of 1991 and it was like reading a diary of a group of friends and even my diary in parts. I wish I could find an audiobook version of it to suggest to everyone, but it seems to not have one.
