With the presidential elections just around the corner Sarah Palin and the Tea Party will be central to all activities. A fascinating and timely insider study, The Palin Effect details what is actually going on in the right of American politics and why it is making some people very uncomfortable. It traces the rise of both Palin and the Tea Party--one that corresponds with the declining fortunes of the middle-class in America--and looks at the deep anxiety that both have provoked in the cultural elite. Shana Pearlman shows how sex, money, and class are linked in the hysterical reaction surrounding this extremely divisive personality. Shana Pearlman has worked at Fox News and the BBC. An American political journalist, Pearlman now works on digital initiatives for major UK newspapers. She lives in London, England, with her husband.
