Dimitry uses Malcolm Bricklin's failed 1970s SV1 sports car to chart North America's shift from industrial modernity to postmodernity. Through thematic chapters on technology, entrepreneurship, risk, politics, gender, business, and rebirth, Anastakis weaves the Bricklin saga with broader automobility history, from Ford's innovations to Tesla's revival. Flexible structure, era-specific playlist, and vivid storytelling make it engaging. Strengths include insightful cultural analysis; minor flaws are occasional density. A compelling read on dreams, failures, and societal change in the auto age.
