Mad World is a highly entertaining oral history that celebrates the New Wave music phenomenon of the 1980s via new interviews with 35 of the most notable artists of the period.

Mixtape suggestions, fashion sidebars, and quotes from famous contemporary admirers help fill out the fun. Participants include members of Duran Duran, New Order, The Smiths, Tears for Fears, Adam Ant, Echo and the Bunnymen, Devo, ABC, Spandau Ballet, A Flock of Seagulls, Thompson Twins, and INXS.

The eight tales in this collection by Nancy Etchemendy weave great suspense with interesting plots and unusual characters. "Lunch at Etienne's" is a story narrated by a woman who is surrounded by death but doesn't seem to realize it. "Cat in Glass" is about a mysterious, malevolent sculpted cat that commits gruesome murders and is told from the point of view of the sculpture's frightened and bewildered owner. There is also "The Sailor's Bargain", a captivating story about an orphan whose haunting dreams lead to a stark revelation of another life, and "The Lily and the Weaver's Heart", in which a one-eyed Jacinth dares to take her place in a cruel world by risking a journey that is usually reserved for the most able-bodied men of the culture.

这是一个前代文明和名为神灵星辰生命同黄昏后的世代。人类努力重建第二代文明，淘汰曾经的思想，不，其实是替代。蒸汽世代：钢铁轰鸣，重炮轰鸣，铆钉战船纵横大洋。电气世代：电灯闪烁，飞艇，无人机蜂起。以及那辉煌的核子曙光。启明世代：金融在运作，社会在赛博和社会化之间左右徘徊，新思潮，新武器，新战术。行星航行世代：战舰控制，行星际穿梭的核能战机驾驶者，以及星表指挥官。大多数普通人该何去何从。 大时盘历：人类的生命在自然人的状态，不过200年。在数千年数万年寿命状态下的人类。将以何种姿态，面对浩瀚的宇宙。……然，科技进步的背后是人文，而每次人文的进步，都需要付出代价。承受不了代价的文明，则总会停在原地。 愿世界多容‘嫩芽新生’
