You might enjoy this - it's not chapter by chapter - but it is cool tracks + cool videos (or at least charmingly of the era videos) www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Rather aptly there is a Still In A Dream excerpt about slackers in The Idler - where Still In A Dream is Book of the Week. Meanwhile in the print edition, there's a nice review from Cathi Unsworth www.idler.co.uk/article/book...
