About the Author :
Now retired, Joseph Natoli spent more than four decades teaching at the university level and twenty years as the editor of the SUNY book series in Postmodern Culture. He is the author of many books, including Hauntings: Popular Film and American Culture 1990-1992; Speeding to the Millennium: Film and Culture 1993-1995; Postmodern Journeys: Film and Culture 1996-1998; Memory's Orbit: Film and Culture 1999-2000; and This Is a Picture and Not the World: Movies and a Post-9/11 America, all published by SUNY Press.

Review :
"Reading Dark Affinities is a welcome break from the neoliberal buzzword-speak of politicians and university administrators. It reminds me why I entered academia, when it was a profession and not a business, and when modeling thinking actually mattered." - Alison Lee, University of Western Ontario "Natoli's Dark Affinities reads as a culminating work of scholarship, marshaling evidence from autobiography, literary analysis, critical theory, and everyday culture in support of its claims. Natoli presents his personal history in the same spirit that Raymond Williams did: as evidence for the ways that cultural forces shape individuals, and as grounds for the shaping of his intellectual and political practice." - Jeff Karnicky, author of Contemporary Fiction and the Ethics of Modern Culture
