It should come to the surprise of no one aware of Nathalie Olah’s bibliography that her latest Bad Taste: Or the Politics of Ugliness, is as relentlessly class conscious and anti-capitalist as her priors Steal as Much as You Can and Class. Bad Taste is a book that invites us to question all the choices we believe we have made entirely of our own accord and to reckon with the preordained nature of consumerism.
Olah’s scrupulous gaze is diverse turned the therapist into a proto-podcaster, the abundant and therefore rebellious fashion choices of Diana and the trend of renovations leaving interior design looking more like dentists’ offices than homes.
