＜p＞**A ＜em＞Kirkus Reviews＜/em＞ Best Nonfiction Book of 2021＜/p＞ ＜p＞A provocative interpretation of why classical music in America "stayed white"ーhow it got to be that way and what can be done about it.**＜/p＞ ＜p＞In 1893 the composer Anton?n Dvor?k prophesied a “great and noble school” of American classical music based on the “negro melodies” he had excitedly discovered since arriving in the United States a year before. But while Black music would foster popular genres known the world over, it never gained a foothold in the concert hall. Black composers found few opportunities to have their works performed, and white composers mainly rejected Dvor?k’s lead.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Joseph Horowitz ranges throughout American cultural history, from Frederick Douglass and ＜em＞Huckleberry Finn＜/em＞ to George Gershwin’s ＜em＞Porgy and Bess＜/em＞ and the work of Ralph Ellison, searching for explanations. Challenging the standard narrative for American classical music fashioned by Aaron Copland and Leonard Bernstein, he looks back to literary figuresーEmerson, Melville, and Twainーto ponder how American music can connect with a “usable past.” The result is a new paradigm that makes room for Black composers, including Harry Burleigh, Nathaniel Dett, William Levi Dawson, and Florence Price, while giving increased prominence to Charles Ives and George Gershwin.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Dvor?k’s Prophecy＜/em＞ arrives in the midst of an important conversation about race in Americaーa conversation that is taking place in music schools and concert halls as well as capitols and boardrooms. As George Shirley writes in his foreword to the book, “We have been left unprepared for the current cultural moment. [Joseph Horowitz] explains how we got there [and] proposes a bigger world of American classical music than what we have known before. It is more diverse and more equitable. And it is more truthful.”＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞“Magnificent poetry; dark, severe, even harshーyet pulsating with life.” ーJohn Ashbery＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞White Spaces＜/em＞ gathers the poetry and prose of Paul Auster from various small-press books issued throughout the seventies. These early poetic works are crucial for understanding the evolution of Auster’s writing. Taut, lyrical, and always informed by a powerful and subtle music, his poems begin with basicsーa swallow’s egg, stones, roots, thistle, “the glacial rose”ーand push language to the breaking point. As Robert Creeley wrote, “The enduring power of these early poems is their moving address to a world all too elusive, too fragmented, and too bitterly transient.” Auster’s poems are grounded in a physical utterance that is at once an exploration of the mind and of the world. This collection begins with compact verse fragments from Spokes (originally published in Poetry, 1971) and goes through Auster’s marvelous later collections including ＜em＞Wall Writing＜/em＞ (The Figures, 1976), ＜em＞Facing the Music＜/em＞ (Parenthese, 1979), and ＜em＞White Spaces＜/em＞ (Station Hill, 1980).＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞"A refreshing retro-kitchen history" ーFlorence Fabricant, ＜em＞The New York Times＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Nearly everyone alive today has experienced cozy, welcoming kitchens packed with conveniences that we now take for granted. Sarah Archer, in this delightful romp through a simpler time, shows us how the prosperity of the 1950s kicked off the technological and design ideals of today’s kitchen. In fact, while contemporary appliances might look a little different and work a little better than those of the 1950s, the midcentury kitchen has yet to be improved upon.＜/p＞ ＜p＞During the optimistic consumerism of midcentury America when families were ready to put their newfound prosperity on display, companies from General Electric to Pyrex to Betty Crocker were there to usher them into a new era. Counter heights were standardized, appliances were designed in fashionable colors, and convenience foods took over families’ plates.＜/p＞ ＜p＞With archival photographs, advertisements, magazine pages, and movie stills, ＜em＞The Midcentury Kitchen＜/em＞ captures the spirit of an eraーand a roomーwhere anything seemed possible.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞A Juilliard-trained musician and professor of history explores the fascinating entanglement of classical music with American foreign relations.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Dangerous Melodies＜/em＞ vividly evokes a time when classical music stood at the center of twentieth-century American life, occupying a prominent place in the nation’s culture and politics. The work of renowned conductors, instrumentalists, and singersーand the activities of orchestras and opera companiesーwere intertwined with momentous international events, especially the two world wars and the long Cold War.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jonathan Rosenberg exposes the politics behind classical music, showing how German musicians were dismissed or imprisoned during World War I, while numerous German compositions were swept from American auditoriums. He writes of the accompanying impassioned protests, some of which verged on riots, by soldiers and ordinary citizens. Yet, during World War II, those same compositions were no longer part of the political discussion, while Russian music, especially Shostakovich’s, was used as a tool to strengthen the US-Soviet alliance. During the Cold War, accusations of communism were leveled against members of the American music community, while the State Department sent symphony orchestras to play around the world, even performing behind the Iron Curtain.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Rich with a stunning array of composers and musicians, including Karl Muck, Arturo Toscanini, Wilhelm Furtw?ngler, Kirsten Flagstad, Aaron Copland, Van Cliburn, and Leonard Bernstein, ＜em＞Dangerous Melodies＜/em＞ delves into the volatile intersection of classical music and world politics to reveal a tumultuous history of twentieth-century America.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞A striking, shapeshifting volume from "one of the most fascinating female poets of our time (＜em＞BOMB＜/em＞)."＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Inspired by her encounter with Dr. Chevalier Jackson’s collection of ingested curiosities at Philadelphia’s M?tter Museum, Kimiko Hahn’s tenth collection investigates the grip that seemingly insignificant objects exert on our lives. Itself a cabinet of curiosities, the collection provokes the same surprise, wonder, and pangs of recognition Hahn felt upon opening drawer after drawer of these swallowed, and retrieved, objectsーa radiator key, a child’s perfect attendance pin, a mother-of-pearl button. The speaker of these moving poems sees reflections of these items in the heartbreaking detritus of her family home, and in her long-dead mother’s Japanese jewelry.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As Hahn remakes the lyric sequence in chains reminiscent of the Japanese ＜em＞tanka＜/em＞, the foreign bodies of the title expand to include the immigrant woman’s trafficked body, fossilized remains, a grandmother’s Japanese body. She explores the relationship between our innermost selves and the relics of our vanished past, making room for meditation on grief and the ephemeral nature of the material world, for the account of a nineteenth-century female fossil hunter, and for a celebration of the nautilus. ＜em＞Foreign Bodies＜/em＞ investigates the power of possession, replete with Hahn’s electric originality and thrilling mastery of ever-changing forms.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞Take your succulents to the next level with these stylish and creative projects＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞From blue- green to purple and pink, flower-shaped to squat and spiky or tall and fuzzy, the variety, versatility, and low-maintenance care of succulents makes them go-to plants for home gardeners. Here, succulent stylist Rachael Cohen shows that these traits also make succulents the ideal material for living art. Tiny, jewel-like succulents can be clipped and replanted in infinite combinations, and unlike cut flowers, they thrive in these arrangements. When planted in corks, they become charming living magnets; when placed in seashells, they are a delightful reminder of a day at the beach. Succulents can also grow nestled in moss, creating an opportunity for even more creativity: arrange them atop mini pumpkins or adorn a headband or a tiny wreath.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In addition to illustrated step-by-step instructions for more than a dozen crafts, Cohen explains which succulents are best for each project, how to clip and prepare rosettes and leaves, and what to do when the plants outgrow their art pieces. Lush photographs throughout capture the natural beauty of the plants and boundless range of possible creations.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞＜em＞Birthday＜/em＞ is among the very best of Airaーit will surprise readers new to his work, and will deeply satisfy his many fans＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Before you know it you are no longer young, and by the way, while you were thinking about other things, the world was changingーand then, just as suddenly you realize that you are fifty years old. Aira had anticipated his fiftiethーa time when he would not so much recall years past as look forward to what lies aheadーbut the birthday came and went without much ado. It was only months later, while having a somewhat banal conversation with his wife about the phases of the moon, that he realized how little he really knows about his life. In ＜em＞Birthday＜/em＞ Aira searches for the events that were significant to him during his first fifty years. Between anecdotes ,and memories, the author ponders the origins of his personal truths, and meditates on literature meant as much for the writer as for the reader, on ignorance, knowledge, and death. Finally, ＜em＞Birthday＜/em＞ is a little sad, in a serene, crystal-clear kind of way, which makes it even more irresistible.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞**Winner of the 2021 California Book Award (Californiana category)＜/p＞ ＜p＞A brilliant California history, in word and image, from an award-winning historian and a documentary photographer.**＜/p＞ ＜p＞“This is the West, sir. When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.” This indelible quote from ＜em＞The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance＜/em＞ applies especially well to California, where legend has so thoroughly become fact that it is visible in everyday landscapes. Our foremost historian of the West, Richard White, never content to “print the legend,” collaborates here with his son, a talented photographer, in excavating the layers of legend built into California’s landscapes. Together they expose the bedrock of the past, and the history they uncover is astonishing.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Jesse White’s evocative photographs illustrate the sites of Richard’s historical investigations. A vista of Drakes Estero conjures the darkly amusing story of the Drake Navigators Guild and its dubious efforts to establish an Anglo-Saxon heritage for California. The restored Spanish missions of Los Angeles frame another origin story in which California’s native inhabitants, civilized through contact with friars, gift their territories to white settlers. But the history is not so placid. A quiet riverside park in the Tulare Lake Basin belies scenes of horror from when settlers in the 1850s transformed native homelands into American property. Near the lake bed stands a small marker commemorating the Mussel Slough massacre, the culmination of a violent struggle over land titles between local farmers and the Southern Pacific Railroad in the 1870s. Tulare is today a fertile agricultural county, but its population is poor and unhealthy. The California Dream lives elsewhere. The lake itself disappeared when tributary rivers were rerouted to deliver government-subsidized water to big agriculture and cities. But climate change ensures that it will be backーthe only question is when.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞A lovable oddball cast of characters is at the heart of this treasure-hunt through the last days of one of the greatest flea markets on earth. "[Rips] has humanity, humor and the gift of a limpid, agile, unpretentious prose style.… A captivating portrait.”ーBen Downing, ＜em＞Wall Street Journal＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Across America and around the world, people wander through flea markets to search for lost treasures. For decades, no such market was more renowned than the legendary Chelsea flea market, which sprawled over several blocks and within an old garage on the west side of Manhattan. Visitors would trawl through booths crammed with vintage dresses, rare books, ancient swords, glass eyeballs, Afghan rugs, West African fetish dolls, Old Master paintings, and much more.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞The Golden Flea＜/em＞, the acclaimed writer Michael Rips takes readers on a trip through this charmed world. With a beguiling style that has won praise from Joan Didion and Susan Orlean, Rips recounts his obsession with the flea and its treasures and provides a fascinating account of the business of buying and selling antiques. Along the way, he introduces us to the flea’s lovable oddball cast of vendors, pickers, and collectors, including a haberdasher who only sells to those he deems worthy; an art dealer whose obscure paintings often go for enormous sums; a troubadour who sings to attract customers; and the Prophet, who finds wisdom among all the treasures and trash.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As Rips’s passion for collecting grows and the flea’s last days loom, he undertakes a quest to prove the provenance of a mysterious painting that just might be ＜em＞the one＜/em＞.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

In the grip of writerly self-doubt, Jeff turned to images, taking snapshots and posting them on Instagram, writing short, true stories that bloomed into documentary. During those two years, he spent a lot of time on the road: meeting strangers working night shifts as he drove through the mountains to see his father; exploring the life and death of Charley Keunang, a once-aspiring actor shot by the police on LA’s Skid Row; documenting gay pride amidst the violent homophobia of Putin’s Russia; passing time with homeless teen addicts in Dublin; and accompanying a lonely woman, whose only friend was a houseplant, on shopping trips.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Early readers have called this book “incantatory,” the voice “prophetic,” in “James Agee’s tradition of looking at the reality of American lives.” Defined by insomnia and late-night driving and the companionship of other darkness-dwellersーnight bakers and last-call drinkers, frightened people and frightening people, the homeless, the lost (or merely disoriented), and other people on the marginsー＜em＞This Brilliant Darkness＜/em＞ erases the boundaries between author, subject, and reader to ask: how do people live with suffering?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Reginald Dwayne Betts confronts the funk of post-incarceration existence in traditional and newfound forms, from revolutionary found poems created by redacting court documents to the astonishing crown of sonnets that serves as the volume’s radiant conclusion.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞A concentrated study of Johann Sebastian Bach’s creative output and greatest pieces, capturing the essence of his art.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Throughout his life, renowned and prolific composer Johann Sebastian Bach articulated his views as a composer in purely musical terms; he was notoriously reluctant to write about his life and work. Instead, he methodically organized certain pieces into carefully designed collections. These benchmark works, all of them without parallel or equivalent, produced a steady stream of transformative ideas that stand as paradigms of Bach’s musical art.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this companion volume to his Pulitzer Prize?finalist biography, ＜em＞Johann Sebastian Bach: The Learned Musician＜/em＞, leading Bach scholar Christoph Wolff takes his cue from his famous subject. Wolff delves deeply into the composer’s own rich selection of collected music, cutting across conventional boundaries of era, genre, and instrument. Emerging from a complex and massive oeuvre, ＜em＞Bach’s Musical Universe＜/em＞ is a focused discussion of a meaningful selection of compositionsーfrom the famous ＜em＞Well-Tempered Clavier＜/em＞, violin and cello solos, and ＜em＞Brandenburg Concertos＜/em＞ to the ＜em＞St. Matthew Passion＜/em＞, ＜em＞Art of Fugue＜/em＞, and ＜em＞B-minor Mass＜/em＞.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Unlike any study undertaken before, this book details Bach’s creative process across the various instrumental and vocal genres. This array of compositions illustrates the depth and variety at the essence of the composer’s musical art, as well as his unique approach to composition as a process of imaginative research into the innate potential of his chosen material. Tracing Bach’s evolution as a composer, Wolff compellingly illuminates the ideals and legacy of this giant of classical music in a new, refreshing light for everyone, from the amateur to the virtuoso.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
