Blues City: A Walk in Oakland (Hardback) (ISBN: 9781400045402) Reed, Ishmael Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Crown Publishing Group, 2003. Hardback. Book Condition: New. 202 x 134 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Oakland is a blues city, brawling and husky . . .Often overshadowed by San Francisco, its twinkling sister city across the Bay, Oakland is itself an American wonder. The city is surrounded by and filled with natural beauty#8212;mountains and hills and lakes and a bay#8212;and architecture that mirrors its history as a Spanish mission, Gold Rush outpost, and home of the West#8217;s most devious robber barons. It#8217;s also a city of artists and blue-collar workers, the birthplace of the Black Panthers, neighbor to Berkeley, and home to a vibrant and volatile stew of immigrants and refugees.In Blues City, Ishmael Reed, one of our most brilliant essayists, takes us on a tour of Oakland, exploring its fascinating history, its beautiful hills and waterfronts, and its odd cultural juxtapositions. He takes us into a year in the life of this amazing city, to black cowboy parades and Indian powwows, to Black Panther reunions and Gay Pride concerts, to a Japanese jazz club where a Lakota musician plays Coltrane#8217;s #8220;Naima.#8221; Reed provides a fascinating tour of an un-tamed, unruly western outpost set against the backdrop of political intrigues, ethnic rivalries, and a gentrification-obsessed mayor, opening our eyes not only to a singular city, but to a newly emerging America.
