Publisher's Synopsis

The South African answer to Las Vegas, Sun City is a luxury entertainment bubble filled with palatial hotels and casinos. This volume reconstructs Sun City as a mythic oasis of late capitalism and a wholly artificial time-space, through oral histories, essays and visual case studies, salvaging its entertainment culture and its aspirations.
