"Hip: The History" is the story of how American pop culture has
evolved throughout the twentieth century to its current position as
world cultural touchstone. How did hip become such an obsession?
From sex and music to fashion and commerce, John Leland tracks the
arc of ideas as they move from subterranean Bohemia to Madison
Avenue and back again. "Hip: The History" examines how hip has
helped shape -- and continues to influence -- America's view of
itself, and provides an incisive account of hip's quest for
authenticity.This P.S. edition features an extra 16 pages of
insights into the book, including author interviews, recommended
reading, and more.
