Reviews

[It] is an academic book, but also one that fans of politics and pop culture would savor. --Boston Globe [An] extraordinary work of political aesthetics... Clover is a gifted music writer, and his descriptions are vivid, surprising and politically sharp without ever being moralistic. --New Statesman Astute ... [A] vivid snapshot of a tumultuous moment in pop and history. --Foreword Magazine Up close, Clover's analysis is interesting an occasionally brilliant... Rich with historical and musical insight... It's the smaller discoveries along the way that make 1989 worth your time. --Bookforum Rewardingly ambitious. [Clover] writes with precision and loads of personality, weaving between global politics and musical genres (rave, hip-hop, grunge) with a fan's intensity. --Time Out New York
