Book of the day: 'X vs. Y'

X vs. Y: A Culture War, a Love Story, by Eve and Leonora Epstein, is a book in which two sisters of relatively different generations compare their lives through the lens of TV, music, technology, and pop culture.

Seen through the eyes of siblings 14 years apart in age, X vs. Y is a smart, funny, stylish, and visually driven anthology that com­piles and compares their two generational cul­tures. It’s a story told through lists, infographics, essays, anecdotes, and images, with chapters devoted to fashion, TV, music, technology, dating, books, and movies. Through musings on topics such as leg warmers, Clueless, Sassy magazine, and MTV, along with mixtapes and TV characters, X vs. Y paints a portrait of two intricately entwined generations.
