description: What do Neil Diamond, Touched by an Angel , Pamela Anderson, The Boy in the Plastic Bubble , White castle hamburgers, Benny Hill, Thomas Kinkade, and the song “You Light Up My Life” have in common? They’re all guilty pleasures—and they’re all celebrated in this massive A-to-Z encyclopedia. Authors Sam Stall, Lou Harry, and Julia Spalding have unearthed fascinating trivia about literature ( Valley of the Dolls, The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue ), television ( The Real World, Land of the Lost ), fashion (Members Only jackets, the WonderBra), and more. Every page features a sophisticated two-column design and handy guide words for quick at-a-glance reference. Best of all, we’ve illustrated 100 of the guiltiest pleasures with the same portrait style used by the Wall Street Journal . Complete with 1,001 entries, it’s the ultimate guide to everything you hate to love!
