Marshall Cavendish Classics: Fascist Rock: Stories of Rebellion
- Description
- About the Author
-
Claire Tham’s rebels tease us with the most provocative questions. Was Hitler the first rock star? Is college spirit a huge con-game? Are teachers fascist? Chris, the angry college punk; Lee, the deejay’s Americanised daughter; James, the pretender; Jeanne, the alienated wife; the Tiananmen refugee – these are some of the rebels who walk through the disturbingly familiar stories in Fascist Rock: Stories of Rebellion. Bitterly, yet eloquently, they voice our own hidden rebellion.
This title is being reissued under the new Marshall Cavendish Classics: Literary Fiction series, which seeks to introduce some of the best works of Singapore literature to a new generation of readers. Some have been evergreen titles over the years, others have been unjustly neglected.
