Go Find Your Father
Poetry. Literary Nonfiction. African American Studies. Harmony Holiday's tête-bêche book-length lyric essay collection GO FIND YOUR FATHER/A FAMOUS BLUES immerses itself and its readers in a deeply personal interrogation of perhaps the most difficult subjects of all: love and family legacy. Holiday addresses these topics in verse, prose, and, most affectingly, in letters to her father--the late singer-songwriter Jimmy Holiday. Through these notes as well as her poems bearing long, ambitious, uncompromising lines, Holiday explores how we distill our own identities from memories and responsibilities bound up in tenderness and violence. Do any black children grow up casual? Naw, we grow up sh...

A Holiday Alphabet Book for Adults
Christmas is a beautiful time of the year-unless you're shopping with hundreds of other people, drinking too much spiked eggnog, or attempting to build a gingerbread house. In her alphabetical collection of short, playful poems for adults, author Harmony Bentosino travels from A through Z as she identifies holiday-related headaches, hassles, and happiness. Harmony, who is known for her award-winning home decorations and rhyming verse, leads holiday revelers on a satirical romp through the anxiety caused by holiday stress, the bills created by the best gift-giving intentions, and lights meticulously hung with the goal of outdoing neighbors. Her verses not only refer to Christmas festivities, but also Hanukkah, Winter Solstice, and New Year's. A Holiday Alphabet Book for Adults uses all the symbols of the season to help you find the fun and laughter during a special time of year.
Look for Me and I'll Be Gone

Popular Music
Popular music studies is a rapidly expanding field with changing emphases and agendas. The music industry has changed in recent years, as has governmental involvement in popular music schemes as part of the culture industry. The distinction between the major record labels and the outsider independents has become blurred over time. Popular music, as part of this umbrella of the culture industry, has been progressively globalized and globalizing. The tensions within popular music are now no longer between national cultural identity and popular music, but between the local and the global. This four volume collection examines the changing status of popular music against this background. Simon Frith examines the heritage of popular music, and how technology has changed not only the production but the reception of this brand of sound. The collection examines how the traditional genres of rock, pop and soul have broken down and what has replaced them, as well as showing how this proliferation of musical styles has also splintered the audience of popular music.
