Serpents and Doves

ByJohn Demetry

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
"Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves."—Matthew 10:16 The flexibility of music library playlists inspired the categorizations in this collection of essays by JOHN DEMETRY. The chapters range in approach: from discovering thematic continuity in early 21st Century pop movies and art cinema (PopArt) to making cultural commentary through post-9/11 assessments of Fleetwood Mac (Heroes Are Hard to Find). The beguiling format counters current criticism’s nihilism and the corresponding fashionable pose of snark. SERPENTS AND DOVES testifies to meaning in our shared popular culture. Features Chapter Introductions by: Ben Kessler, Melinda Selmys, Binx Bolling, Armond White, Sascha Westphal, and Shalin Vora Book Design/Typeset by: Jacob Hernandez
