Zusammenfassung: | Inhaltsverzeichnis: Girl on a motorcycle --We are orphans here --Earth angel --In the company of truckers --Bad captains --Happy hour --Tramping in the byways --Flying cars --Picture-book horses --Not with the band --Made to burn --Popular mechanics --The sinking of the HMS bounty --Duras with an S --Is prison necessary? --Woman in revolt --Lipstick traces --Bunny --The hard crowd. A career-spanning anthology of essays on politics and culture by the best-selling author of The Flamethrowers includes entries discussing a Palestinian refugee camp, an illegal Baja Peninsula motorcycle race, and the 1970s Fiat factory wildcat strikes. In this collection of essays, Kushner gathers a selection of her writing from over the course of the last twenty years. They address the most pressing political, artistic, and cultural issues of our times - and illuminates the themes and real-life terrain that underpin her fiction (adapted from jacket). |
