Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Neuware - A rollicking history of America’s most iconic weekly newspaper told through the voices of its legendary writers, editors, and photographers "The Freaks Came Out to Write may be the best history of a journalistic enterprise I’ve ever read"—Dwight Garner, The New York Times You either were there or you wanted to be. A defining New York City institution co-founded by Norman Mailer,TheVillageVoicewas the first newspaper to cover hip-hop, the avant-garde art scene, and Off-Broadway with gravitas. It reported on the AIDS crisis with urgency and seriousness when other papers dismissed it as a gay disease. In 1979, theVoice’s Wayne Barrett uncovered Donald Trump as a corrupt con artist before anyone else was paying attention. It invented new forms of criticism and storytelling and revolutionized journalism, spawning hundreds of copycats. With more than 200 interviews, including two-time Pulitzer Prize winner, Colson Whitehead, cultural critic Greg Tate, gossip columnist Michael Musto, and feminist writers Vivian Gornick and Susan Brownmiller,formerVoicewriterTricia Romanopays homage to the paper that saved NYC landmarks from destruction and exposed corrupt landlords and judges. With interviews featuring post-punk band, Blondie, sportscaster Bob Costas, and drummer Max Weinberg, of Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band, in this definitive oral history, Romanotells the story of journalism, New York City and American culture—and the most famous alt-weekly of all time.FINALIST FOR 2024 NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FINALIST FOR 2025 GOTHAM BOOK PRIZE LISTED IN BEST BOOKS OF 2024 BY NEW YORK MAGAZINE (VULTURE), THE NEW YORKER, LITHUB, AND CHICAGO PUBLIC LIBRARY.…
