"We all know what suburbia is, indeed the majority of us live in it. Yet, despite
this ubituity, with no formal definition of the contept, the suburbs have developed
in our collective imagination through representations in popular culture, from Terry
and June to Desparate Housewives. Rupa Huq examines how suburbia has been depicted
in novels, cinema, popular music and on television, charting changing trends both
in the suburbs and popular media consumption and production. She looks at the differences
in defining suburbia in the US and UK and how characteristics associated with it have
shifted in meaning and form."--Résumé de l'éditeur
