Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. No Jacket. Book Club Edition. First edition, 1st printing in the Quality Paperback Book Club edition from 1988. Bright, clean & tight copy, gently read, in FINE condition. 'The Work of a Legendary Critic: Rock 'n' Roll as Literature and Literature as Rock 'n' Roll,' Edited by Greil Marcus. "Until his d…eath in 1982 at age 34, Bangs wrote freewheeling rock 'n' roll pieces for Creem, Rolling Stone, the Village Voice and London's NME (New Musical Express). As a rock critic, he was adept at distinguishing the commercially packaged product from the real thing. Written in a conversational, wisecracking, erotically charged style, his impudent reviews and essays explore the connections between rock and the body politic, the way rock stars cow their audiences and how the pursuit of success and artistic vision destroys or makes rock performers as human beings. This collection covers Mick Jagger, John Lennon, David Bowie, Iggy Pop, the Troggs, Lou Reed, Van Morrison, Chicago, the Clash, many more. Marcus, a music critic, is the author of Mystery Train: Images of America in Rock 'n' Roll Music."--Publishers Weekly. "For rockers whose tastes demand more than Madonna and who remember back before Bruce, this is a gem. By turns insightful and hilarious, these collected essays by the late, legendary Banks (mostly accumulated from hard-to-come-by journals like Creem ) constantly astound. If your mind can embrace a shrewdly perceptive essay on the Troggs with the title 'James Taylor Marked for Death,' you also deserve to read the title essay on the Count Five's first album, some amazingly antagonistic love/hate interviews with Lou Reed, and so on. Add to all this a whacked-out sprung prose style (and vocabulary) that would make Gerard Manley Hopkins gasp for air, and you have, well, what you have. For larger music collections, this is, like, highly recommended."--Library Journal. My favorite piece, from 1973: "The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies, or, The Day the Airwaves Erupted"--priceless. Pristine QPBC paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square-but-hip & tight binding w/no creases in spine & no jacket as issued. Pairs nicely with my listing RUB1974 for LET IT BLURT: THE LIFE & TIMES OF LESTER BANGS, AMERICA'S GREATEST ROCK CRITIC by Jim DeRogatis.

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in FINE / AS NEW condition. 1095pp. "America is a nation making itself up as it goes along--a story of discovery and invention unfolding in speeches and images, letters and poetry, unprecedented feats of scholarship and imaginati…on. In these myriad, multiform, endlessly changing expressions of the American experience, the authors and editors of this volume find a new American history. [] In more than two hundred original essays, A NEW LITERARY HISTORY OF AMERICA brings together the nation's many voices. From the first conception of a New World in the sixteenth century to the latest re-envisioning of that world in cartoons, television, science fiction, and hip hop, the book gives us a new, kaleidoscopic view of what 'Made in America' means. Literature, music, film, art, history, science, philosophy, political rhetoric--cultural creations of every kind appear in relation to each other, and to the time and place that give them shape. [] The meeting of minds is extraordinary as T. J. Clark writes on Jackson Pollock, Paul Muldoon on Carl Sandburg, Camille Paglia on Tennessee Williams, Sarah Vowell on Grant Wood's American Gothic, Walter Mosley on hard-boiled detective fiction, Jonathan Lethem on Thomas Edison, Gerald Early on Tarzan, Bharati Mukherjee on The Scarlet Letter, Gish Jen on Catcher in the Rye, and Ishmael Reed on Huckleberry Finn. From Anne Bradstreet and John Winthrop to Philip Roth and Toni Morrison, from Alexander Graham Bell and Stephen Foster to Alcoholics Anonymous, Life, Chuck Berry, Alfred Hitchcock, and Ronald Reagan, this is America singing, celebrating itself, and becoming something altogether different, plural, singular, new." [jacket copy] "This magnificent volume is a vast, inquisitive, richly surprising and consistently enlightening wallow in our national history and culture . . . Neither reference nor criticism, neither history nor treatise, but a genre-defying, transcendent fusion of them all. It sounds impossible, but the result seems both inevitable and necessary and profoundly welcome, too . . . This book is not so much a history of our literature as it is a literary version of our history, told through the culture we've created to recount our past and conjure our future . . . In the age of Wikipedia, a reference book like this needs more than just the facts; it needs to tell us what the facts mean, and A NEW LITERARY HISTORY OF AMERICA does just that."--Laura Miller, Salon. "It's hard to imagine anyone right up to full professor failing to get excitement from this charged grid of event and interpretation . . . Hats off, though, to the editors above all, for constructing a volume where each element reinforces every other, often by contradicting it, so that the whole vast book is more exciting than even its most impressive part."--Adam Mars-Jones, The Observer. "This hefty yet invigorating anthology of 225 new essays about American culture and history is perfect for the hard-to-please smarty-pants."--Time Out New York. "[An] essential, eclectic doorstop anthology."--New York Magazine. Oversize book will likely require additional postage & insurance to get to you safely; please inquire with your specific interest/destination & shipping charges will be advised once destination is known. Pristine F/AN hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a bright & intact jacket covered in archival mylar. Quite presentable.
