about this author
ERIC NUZUM is a recovering pop culture critic, VH1 pundit, and author of The Dead Travel Fast: Stalking Vampires from Nosferatu to Count Chocula (2007/2008) and Parental Advisory: Music Censorship in America (2001). He writes a lot of inane stuff that falls somewhere between the styles of Ted Kaczynski and Robert Frost, with a dash of inappropriate jokes thrown in for good measure. Nuzum was awarded the 2002 National Edward R. Murrow Award for News Writing and his work has appeared in a few publications you’ve heard of and many more that you haven’t heard of. He works for National Public Radio in Washington, D.C. and lives with his wife in that same general area.
He opines regularly on his Web site, www.ericnuzum.com. ...more

review of The Dead Travel Fast: Stalking Vampires from Nosferatu to Count Chocula:
"I absolutely loved this book. I picked it up in the "cultural studies" section of Barnes and Noble, and for some reason it caught my attention. I have read Dracula and watched Buffy, but I had no specific interest in vampires, but I bought ...more " | |

review of The Dead Travel Fast: Stalking Vampires from Nosferatu to Count Chocula:
"Given my own obsession with ridiculous vampire romance novels, I was drawn to the tongue-in-cheek exploration of vampire culture promised by the book jacket and I was not disappointed. It's fitting that there is a Chuck Klosterman endorse...more " | |
