{"product_id":"lost-joy-camden-joy-9781891241062","title":"Lost Joy","description":"\u003ci\u003eLost Joy\u003c\/i\u003e collects the writing that first brought Camden Joy wide attention in the mid-90s, when he wheatpasted his \"manifestoes\" around New York, excoriating the music industry and celebrating unsung geniuses of rock and roll. Joy's voice--heartfelt, mocking, lyrical, razor-sharp--earned comparisons to the likes of Allen Ginsberg, Patti Smith, and Nick Hornby. Rooted in DIY zine culture, his rants prefigure the unfettered public expression of personal views that would explode with the rise of the Internet, and enact in words what Banksy would later achieve in art. Joy's groundbreaking early fiction, in which his characters often invoke musicians and songs, is also included here. These haunting stories explore the many ways in which we use music to communicate our feelings and make sense of our memories.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Camden Joy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1891241060\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781891241062\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verse Chorus Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/14\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.70d","brand":"Camden Joy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43978747674879,"sku":"9781891241062","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bfcaeed6-121e-4592-848a-d153c6e82e1d.jpg?v=1683242864","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lost-joy-camden-joy-9781891241062","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
