In a mix of interviews, essays, personal stories, historical snapshots, obscure anecdotes, and think pieces, this second expanded edition dissects, analyzes and celebrates ska in exactly the way fans have been craving for decades. With the addition of 4 new sections, Aaron adds to the already extensive compendium that was the first edition: The Importance of Christian Ska; After ska died in the '90s, the music went underground and returned to its roots; The ska roots of Fall Out Boy lead singer Patrick Stump; How Katrina created a vibrant ska scene in New Orleans. Aaron expands on the original edition with exciting interviews with Patrick Stump from Fall Out Boy who he interviewed on his podcast of the same name. In Defense of Ska: Ska Now More Than Ever is the much-needed response to years of ska-mockery. Now the time to take to the streets and fight music snobbery, or at least crank up the ska without being teased ruthlessly, has come. This book will enlist ska-lovers as soldiers in the ska army and challenge ska-haters' prejudices to the core.

Oliver, a bitter revolutionary, feels useless in a war that has been raging for decades between the Insurrection and the Vigil. As a librarian, he spends most of his time tending to forgotten bookshelves and ensuring that a copy of the "Weekly Report" is available for people who wish to read it. When he gets called to war, the walls of his mind begin to fracture. Even when off the battlefield he's at war with himself over what is true and what is propaganda. Clouded in the fog of war, a new frontier emerges in this battle for dominance: the human mind. As Oliver descends deeper into the conflict he loses all naïve illusions regarding truth and fair play. Doubt and fear creep in as the world in his head and the world he senses clash. How did he let himself get wrapped up in this? Is he the hapless victim or is he one of the villains? The dystopic vision of Orwell meets the meditative discourse of Dostoyevsky in The Men Who Take Eyes. On an icy future battlefield, Oliver, the lowly librarian will face the horrors of war and find himself.

Radically imaginative and intense, challenging language to be slow and fast, soft and hard, drunk and sober, What Are You performs its own destruction and recreation. Hypnotic, dreamlike, lyrical essays tell the story of a woman trapped in a destructive love affair with the universe. Her understanding of power, desire, and complicity must be transformed again and again. Addressed to an amorphous you, Lerman wrestles with the forces of birth and death, creation and destruction--going deep into the subterranean strata of consciousness and back.
