Haiku of Culture Critique: Search for Meaning is offered potentially to every individual, especially for those who are at home, quite satisfied with the world’s course of things as better than heaven, but concerned with the perfection of needs, i.e., their satisfaction at every moment of life, which America tends to believe is guaranteed and attainable as 'That’s it!' Coming up in place of its antithesis is a myth that eats it up, and in the end, the myth acquires terror as sacredness and truth as hope. With it the distinction of dreaming and waking fades, and the world seems to turn to a super society of America. So the will to the dream of an existence without shame, even where the myth turns indistinguishable from the introversion of sacrifice against which it arises, and so self-advertising becomes a privilege, especially the one that asks for a privilege-free society. Seen from this standpoint, the self-righteous conviction that this book is an exception seems sterile, simply because the title aims at the death of all others.In every decay mode of cultural evolution, the likelihood of 'That’s it' identified as the dominant hard and strong opens on its part to the unlikelihood of 'That’s not it' as weak and submissive, and only then, the two interact with one another. Only then, the decay brings about something new to the self. In short, this distancing is an unconcealment of homesickness, of which the speaker puts in his final line, 'Today, the restoration of homesickness proper to man and to Nature is a primary philosophical task.'
