Cosa hanno in comune tre galeotti in fuga dal penitenziario di Parchman e il filosofo Jean Franccedil;ois Lyotard? Che collegamento cegrave; tra le pellicole dei fratelli Coen e le teorie sulla postmodernitagrave;? A queste e ad altre domande si tenta di rispondere nelle pagine di questo libro; partendo dalla convinzione che il film "O Brother; Where Art Thou?" sia unopera epocale; un capolavoro; il cui senso si coglie solo se si egrave; capaci di comprenderne la natura postmoderna; il taglio ironico; il carattere citazionista e dissacrante con cui i due registi irridono e; contemporaneamente; consacrano tutta la tradizione della cultura occidentale; da Omero a Clark Gable; dal mondo classico alluniverso pop.

9 of 9 people found the following review helpful. Good book. Very reccomendable.By Alejandro J CeppiLots of very thorough reviews have already been written for this book. I mostly agree with everything already said in those in which four or five stars were given to this book. There is not much then that I could add. This is in my opinion a very good; comprehensive; enjoyable and useful book for those who like me would like to learn to play the Blues with a harmonica.The kindle version does not come with a CD; but I managed to download the audio examples from http://wiley.mpstechnologies.com/wiley/BOBContent/searchLPBobContent.do (I just had to type ldquo;blues harmonicardquo; in the search box for book titles and a downloadable zip file with the mp3 examples was made available for me).Apart from this one; I bought other several books (in kindle format and printed as well) that attempt to teach how to play a harmonica from the basics. This one is becoming to be one of my favourite and I am finding it to be most useful so therefore; I do dare to recommend it.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Excellent; focused guide to learning Blues harmonica; excellent reference source too.By MiketheBikeI bought this after taking a copy out from my local library. I wanted my own copy because it is a seriously good reference source as well as an excellent tool for actually learning to play Blues harmonica. I like that it is entirely focused on Blues harmonica (I dont want or need to learn how to play "Oh; Susana"!). The author really knows his stuff as a teacher and is extremely good at explaining how to do; as well as what to do. There is now a massive amount of you tube video on the subject of how to play Blues on harmonica; some of it excellent (I like Adam Gussows Modern Blues Harmonica videos; many good ones free on you tube) and some of it not so good. This book keeps me on course to learn Blues harmonica. The audio disc is great because I can pop it into the player in my car; listen and "groove in" the lessons to my memory.By the way; if you want to play well; you do have to play a LOT! One primary "secret" to learning harmonica is that it takes plenty of practice to groove in the muscle-memory you need to fluidly play the riffs and licks that make up harmonica blues. The good news is that its FUN!2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Blues R Me!!By Uncle KimoOn the way to getting a more bluesy feel to my play. Just gotta sit down and do the time!
