Performing Rites
In Performing Rites, one of the most influential writers on popular music asks what we talk about when we talk about music. What's good, what's bad? What's high, what's low? Why do such distinctions matter? Instead of dismissing emotional response and personal taste as inaccessible to the academic critic, Simon Frith takes these forms of engagement as his subject - and discloses their place at the very center of the aesthetics that structure our culture and color our lives. Taking up hundreds of songs and writers, Frith insists on acts of evaluation of popular music as music. Ranging through and beyond the twentieth century, Performing Rites puts the Pet Shop Boys and Puccini, rhythm and lyric, voice and technology, into a dialogue about the undeniable impact of popular aesthetics on our lives.

The Last True Story I'll Ever Tell
The streets of Baghdad and its inhabitants figure prominently in this soldier`s tale of the 2002 Iraqi invasion and its aftermath. John Crawford, now a civilian, recalls his experiences in a National Guard unit that, day in and day out, patrolled the city and had direct contact with civilians. Crawford tells many stories here--about his fellow soldiers, shop owners, Iraqi men, women and children, and himself: his reserve unit was called up while he was on his honeymoon, and he was pulled in the middle of his last semester of college. Like many National Guard members, he resented the fact that his stay was interminable and open-ended compared to those of the regular troops, and that the living conditions were as bad as in any war. In his street-level, grunt`s-eye view, Crawford conveys a sense of what war is really like, for both sides.
