Roth is not for the faint of heart~ he crafts a story that is dead-on-true about human nature and emotion, creating characters that stay with you. I found the most interesting thing to be how he addressed basic human nature and then added stresses that could occur in any person, yet also provides a window into select points-of view. Not an easy task, but one I feel is worth the read.
One of my Sociology professors from UT wrote this amazing piece on maintaining the authenticity of Hip Hop in a very commercialized music industry. His diverse background in both sociology and radio, TV and Film brings a unique insight in placing the evolution of Hip Hop music in a social/political context. He doesn't go so much in the history of hip hop music, but focuses his discussion on the mainstreaming of Hip Hop today. It's nonfiction, written by an academic, but i found it to be a very entertaining and engaging book. He uses a lot of hip hop prose to illustrate his points.
