A funny, fierce, and uninhibited musical chronicle of the convulsive past six years, from one of our finest cultural critics

Greil Marcus begann seine Arbeit an »Lipstick Traces« aus Begeisterung für die Sex Pistols: jener Skandal-Band, die 1975 als radikales Statement erfunden wurde. »Ich bin ein Antichrist!«, schrie Johnny Rotten - wie kam eine solche Selbstbezichtigung in die Welt des Pops? Auf der Suche nach Antworten führt Marcus auf die dunklen Pfade der Gegengeschichte, eine Route voller Gotteslästerungen, Abenteuer und Überraschungen. Und obwohl die Sex Pist...

Renowned critic Greil Marcus takes on the fascinating legacy of F. Scott Fitzgerald's iconic masterpiece as an outsized parable of the American dream and dramatizes its influence on the works of artists ranging from Phillip Roth and Raymond Chandler to Jelly Roll Morton and Lana Del Rey.

It may be the most sophisticated political thriller ever made in Hollywood, " film critic Pauline Kael wrote of John Frankenheimer's terrifying 1962 political thriller about an American serviceman brainwashed in Korea and made into an assassin.

Tra il 1957, l'anno di nascita dell'Internazionale Situazionista nell...

Six minutes and six seconds in length, it was released by Dylan despite the received wisdom of the day as to what constituted a single. Greil Marcus' book reconstructs the context in which the song first appeared, in terms of Dylan's own career (his controversial transformation from folk singer into rock 'n' roll singer...

Questa entusiasmante raccolta di scritti è un album di ricordi incentrati su Bob Dylan, premio Nobel per la Letteratura 2016, che prende il via in New Jersey nell'estate del 1963 per terminare a Minneapolis nella notte delle elezioni americane del 2008. Nel primo caso, il pubblico di un festival trattiene il respiro di fronte a un tizio con chitarra dall'aria trasandata che dice di chiamarsi Bob Dylan e che suona insieme a Joan Baez, nell'altr...
