The strange and wonderful place of Twin Peaks captivated audiences
for more than two decades before its long-awaited return to
television in 2017. David Lynch and Mark Frost created a land that
embodies the politics of American culture. With its focus on
small-town America and life outside urban centers, rural and
suburban values play a big part in the overall Twin Peaks
narrative. More than just a soapy murder investigation or a
mysterious puzzle to be solved, Twin Peaks and Twin Peaks: The
Return are metaphors for the political years in which they are set.
The Politics of Twin Peaks investigates the show's engagement with
American politics and identity. With a close relationship between
the two, Twin Peaks is the rare cultural landmark in both film and
television whose timelessness is defined by the fact that it can
constantly be reinterpreted. Within that sometimes dreamlike
Lynchian narrative, Twin Peaks hints at, sometimes explicitly and
sometimes subtly, the political fault lines in the United States.
In this edited collection, the politics inherent in Twin Peaks is
approached from numerous points of view.
