Girls to the Front is the epic, definitive history of the Riot Grrrl movement: the radical feminist punk uprising that exploded into the public eye in the 1990s, altering America's gender landscape--and soundscape--forever. Author Sara Marcus, a cultural historian and critic who's written for Rolling Stone, the New Republic, the Los Angeles Times, and The Nation, interweaves research, interviews, and her own memories as a Riot Grrrl front-liner. Her passionate, sophisticated narrative brilliantly conveys the stories of punk bands like Bikini Kill, Bratmobile, and Heavens to Betsy--whose successors include Sleater-Kinney, Partyline, and Kathleen Hanna's Le Tigre--as well as the legions of young feminists who listened up, became inspired, and made their own revolution.

Off-Centre: Feminism and Cultural Studies
This anthology of new work is the first since Women Take Issue to bring together feminist theory and cultural studies. Continuing the tradition of collective scholarship from the internationally recognised Birmingham school, Off-Centre is a major contribution to recent debates in these areas. The book covers issues of long standing concern, as well as those of new significance - pop culture and the media, science and technology, Thatcherism and the Enterprise Culture. A distinctive interdisciplinary approach holds together the range of topics, and is supplemented by editors' introductions surveying recent developments in feminism and cultural studies. The volume critically addresses the relationship between feminism and cultural studies, arguing for the value of combining these approaches in the analysis of contemporary culture.
