A rip-roaring journey through the highs and lows of tour lifeWelcome aboard the tour van of Major Threat-Brooklyn's finest rock band yet to catch a break-as they traverse the US of A on a last-ditch summer festival tour. On drums we've got "band dad" Ed, the stoic drummer who keeps bumping into tech bro coworkers that he can't quite relate to. On bass, there's Paul, a man of mostly mystery, who drinks hard and yet manages to glide through life, intelligible to no one except energy-drink-guzzling Marco, the baby of the band and newest replacement lead singer. And of course there's the gentle and serene Lilith, a weed-lollipop-sucking, stuffed-animal-backpack-wearing guitarist healing from heartbreak. There's sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll, sure, but there are also tender moments as the motley crew take turns behind the wheel, compiling lists of the hottest hunks and best guitar riffs to pass the miles. From tour fashion to breakdowns-mechanical and emotional-Leslie Stein holds no bars in this incredibly funny and heartfelt love letter meets parody of life on the road.Her first full-length fiction, Brooklyn's Last Secret expertly showcases Stein's trademark cocktail of charm, wit, and whimsey, leaving readers decidedly affected by their time spent in her world.
Blending an analysis of general political, diplomatic and military trends with a description of how Zionist pioneers coped with ongoing social developments and challenges, Stein recounts the events that would ultimately lead to the formation of the State of Israel in May 1948.
A succinct and highly readable overview of one of the most critical periods in IsraelOs short history. Covers from the founding of the State in 1948 to the Six-Day war of 1967: a time within which Israel fought three separate wars and saw its population double due to mass immigration.
Expanded for the print edition, this is a lyrical exploration of the city and memory, as drawn by Vice cartoonist Leslie Stein
