Industry Reviews
"A book about the twilight zone of art and revolution...[that] displays an intellectual confidence, or nerve, that more than convinces the reader to follow its unmarked trails."
Boston Globe - Gail Caldwell

"A coruscatingly original piece of work, vibrant with the energy of the bizarre happenings it maps out."
New York Times Book Review - Terry Eagleton

"[This book is] a highly subjective account of rebellious gestures that recur from decade to decade, often in remarkably similar incarnations. Marcus doesn't belabor the division between high and low--he just ignores it, fluidly shifting from (sometimes obscure) source to source. Dada leads to punk leads to Police Academy, and Elvis movies prompt analyses of the Left Bank. Natch! That Marcus can kick off and end his exhaustive, but always clear-headed, cross-epochal trek with the Sex Pistols--and make it all cohere--is but one indication of how fully he meshes the academy and the gutter."
Voice Literary Supplement - Katherine Dieckmann
