Description
What is pretentiousness? Why are we afraid of it? And more controversially: why is it vital to a thriving culture? Drawing on the author's own experiences growing up and working at the more radical edges of the arts, this book is a timely defence of pretentiousness as a necessity for innovation and diversity in our culture.
