Book description
A rich banquet at the cutting edge of the arts, rooted in California's eclectic cultural gumbo, by one of America's most gifted critics, who died young in 2019."A perfect journalistic valediction from one of LA's finest commentators."--Richard ThompsonThe late Scott Timberg championed artists earnestly and relentlessly, with empathy and persistence. He was a vocal and widely admired advocate for working artists, one of the first to sound the alarm on the escalating economic challenges that have faced creative workers in the twenty-first century. The twenty-six reflections in this book form a valuable window onto many cultural shifts that have upended the country's creative traditions and expectations. They are, by turns, surprising, wide-ranging, passionate, and fun. Timberg's perceptive and enthusiastic profiles on the arts extend to West Coast jazz and Gustavo Dudamel's LA Philharmonic, the fiction of Ray Bradbury and John Rechy, the early films of Spike Jonze and Christopher Nolan, the comics of Los Bros Hernandez and Adrian Tomine, and many more musicians, novelists, filmmakers, architects, and impresarios. Timberg had a knack, as Ted Gioia writes in his introduction, for "finding the best in the cultural scene on the dream coast." This is an indispensable volume that showcases the author's endless curiosity, as well as his passion and love for California--especially that confounding and complex metropolis Los Angeles.
