PUNK! Las Américas Edition is now available in paperback!
Edited by Olga Rodríguez-Ulloa, Rodrigo Quijano and Shane Greene
What does a hemispheric Americas look like when conceived through the lens of punk music, visuals and literature? That is the core premise of this book, presented through a collage of analytical, aesthetic and experiential takes on punk across the continent.
This book challenges the dominant vision of punk – particularly its white masculine protagonists and deep Anglocentrism – by analysing punk as a critical lens into the disputed territories of ‘America’, a term that hides the heterogeneous struggles, global histories, hopes and despairs of late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century experience. Compiling academic essays and punk paraphernalia (interviews, zines, poetry and visual segments) into a single volume, the book seeks to explore punk life through its multiple registers, through vivid musical dialogues, excessive visual displays and underground literary expression.
