Joel Schalit

ISBN: 9781888451177
Publisher: Akashic
Release Date: 2001-03-07
ITEM OVERVIEW
Israeli by birth, American by association, and homeless by conscience, Shalit is uniquely qualified to blast all stereotypes of Jewish identity. Punk, the religious right, and Middle Eastern politics are all subjected to his biting humor and philosophical analysis. Can there be a secular non-Zionist Israel? And did Nirvana sell out? Part travelogue, part political and cultural analysis, part rollicking good read. An editor of Punk Planet and Bad Subjects.
