He is a unique and influential voice in American letters. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Marcus was born in 1945 in San Francisco. In 1968 he published his first piece, a review of \u003ci\u003eMagic Bus: The Who on Tour\u003c\/i\u003e, in \u003ci\u003eRolling Stone\u003c\/i\u003e, where he became the magazine's first records editor. Renowned for his ongoing \"Real Life Top Ten\" column, Marcus has been a writer for a number of magazines and websites and is the author or editor of over fifteen books. His critique is egalitarian: no figure, object, or event is too high, low, celebrated, or obscure for an inquiry into the ways in which our lives can open outward, often unexpectedly. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eIn Conversations with Greil Marcus\u003c\/i\u003e, Marcus discuses in lively, wide-ranging interviews his books and columns as well as his critical methodology and broad approach to his material, signaled by a generosity of spirit leavened with aggressive critical standards.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 238\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.54 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 18, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42231275159687,"sku":"9781496857941","price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/cfe77c6c48bc8c064ea27de0b76db607.webp?v=1735721139","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/conversations-with-greil-marcus-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
