Synopsis

The legacy of punk rock is not merely musical but in fact can be found in an astounding variety of cultural media, including literature. From a cast of authors at the forefront of contemporary popular culture who have been—and continue to be—influenced by punk music, each tale in this dazzling collection of short stories has been inspired by a punk song. With contributors ranging from Kele Okereke of Bloc Party to Billy Bragg and Lydia Lunch, this is a fantastic and fascinating look at the dramatic impact punk rock has made on today’s artists, musicians, and authors.
