NPR: Lee Siegel: The Human Hunger for More

Lee Siegel: The Human Hunger for More

Lee Siegel on the triumph -- and tyranny -- of prosperity

Forward this beefcake to a friend.

In his ongoing look at our blog and Twitter feed, Lee Siegel turns his considerable attention today to the nexus of sex, money and the Internet. Put them in whatever order you like, just try to be human about it.

Siegel's the author of Against the Machine: Being Human in the Age of the Electronic Mob, a little book worthy of a big stir.

Earlier in the week, we went around with Siegel about a BPP post on High School Musical, a Tweet on Chekhovian potatoes and a cupcakes post that served as an island refuge.
