REAL LIFE ROCK: THE COMPLETE TOP TEN COLUMNS, 1986-2014
Book ID/图书代码： 02330015B79853
English Summary/英文概要： The Washington Post hails Greil Marcus as “our greatest cultural critic.” Writing in the London Review of Books, D. D. Guttenplan calls him “probably the most astute critic of American popular culture since Edmund Wilson.” For nearly thirty years, he has written a remarkable column that has migrated from the Village Voice to Artforum, Salon, City Pages, Interview, and The Believer and currently appears in the Barnes & Noble Review. It has been a laboratory where Marcus has fearlessly explored and wittily dissected an enormous variety of cultural artifacts, from songs to books to movies to advertisements, teasing out from the welter of everyday objects what amounts to a de facto theory of cultural transmission. Published to complement the paperback edition of THE HISTORY OF ROCK & ROLL IN TEN SONGS, REAL LIFE ROCK reveals the critic in full: direct, erudite, funny, fierce, vivid, astute, uninhibited, and possessing an unerring instinct for art and fraud. The result is an indispensable volume packed with startling arguments and casual brilliance.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《华盛顿邮报》评价格雷尔•马库斯为“最伟大的文化评论家”。D•D•格滕普兰在《伦敦书评》一书中写道，“格雷尔可能是继埃德蒙•威尔森之后最精明的美国当代文学评论家”。在近30年的时间里，格雷尔为诸多专栏供稿，其中包括《乡村杂志》、《沙龙》、《都市报》、《采访》、《追随者》、以及近期的《巴恩斯和诺贝尔书评》等。格雷尔无畏地探索着、智慧地剖析着当代的文学，包括歌曲、书籍、电影、广告等，从日常琐碎的事物中提炼出文化传播的理论。格雷尔现已出版的书籍有《通过十首歌了解摇滚的历史》和《现实生活中的摇滚》，我们从中可以看到格雷尔的写作风格：直接、博学、有趣、生动、智慧、不羁，对真正和虚假的艺术有着不可比拟的判断力，从书中你可以看到许多惊人的论点和日常的智慧。（XAT）
Awards/获奖情况：“从《通过十首歌了解摇滚的历史》到《现实生活中的摇滚前十》，再到下一部畅销作品，马库斯是我们最伟大文化评论家，不止因为他说了什么，还有就摇滚而言，他是如何表达的。”——戴维•科尔比，《华盛顿邮报》
“摇滚就是有种令人痴迷的能量，让你沉迷于紧张的氛围中，那种感觉你可能只有在大学论文答辩中体会过。像是命中注定一般，就对此深深狂热。”——本•布莱特利，《纽约时代》
From the author of The History of Rock ’n’ Roll
in Ten Songs comes his “Basement Tapes”: the
complete “Real Life Rock Top 10” columns
Greil Marcus’ next “blockbuster” – a “radioactive brick of a book”
“Marcus is our greatest cultural critic, not only because of what he says but also, as with rock-and-roll itself, how he says it.”—David Kirby, Washington Post, on The History of Rock ’n’ Roll in Ten Songs
“[It] has the energy of its obsessions, and it snares you in the manner of those intense, questing and often stoned sessions of intellectual debate you may have experienced in your college years. It was destined, in other words, to achieve cult status.”—Ben Brantley, New York Times, on Lipstick Traces
