Like most contemporary fiction, Reena Spaulings is about a female twenty-something. Reena is discovered while working as a museum guard and becomes a rich international supermodel. Meanwhile, a bout of terrible weather seizes New York, leaving in its wake a strange form of civil disobedience that stirs its citizens to mount a musical song-and-dance riot called \"Battle on Broadway.\" Fashioned in the old Hollywood manner by a legion of professional and amateur writers striving to achieve the ultimate blockbuster, the musical ends up being about a nobody who could be anybody becoming a somebody for everybody. The result is generic and perfect—not unlike Reena Spaulings itself, whose many authors create a story in which New York itself strives to become the ultimate collective experiment in which the only thing shared is the lack of uniqueness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                    \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                                    \u003cp\u003eThe artist-collective Bernadette Corporation was founded in a night club in 1994. In the beginning the group organized spontaneous, purposeless events in public space. In 1995 they morphed into a fashion label, then a self-publishing company that from 1999 to 2001 published an art magazine called \u003ci\u003eMade in USA\u003c\/i\u003e. Bernadette Corporation has also produced films, including \u003ci\u003eHell Frozen Over\u003c\/i\u003e (2000), and \u003ci\u003eGet Rid of Yourself\u003c\/i\u003e (2003), as well as exhibits at art galleries and museums throughout the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                            \n                            \u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Best Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":45353082650785,"sku":"BBSNIJ9781584350309","price":24.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/2084\/5473\/files\/9781584350309.jpg?v=1762960575","url":"https:\/\/www.bestbookstore.ca\/products\/reena-spaulings-paperback-by-bernadette-corporation","provider":"Best Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
