Exploring the concept of cultural identity in affluent societies, the book examines how individuals curate their identities from a global array of choices, akin to shopping in a cultural supermarket. It questions whether the ability to select elements from various cultures dilutes the notion of a fundamental cultural identity, prompting a deeper reflection on the implications of globalization on personal and collective belonging.
