Product Description
With an ethnographer's eye, Stacy Holman Jones offers us a cultural critique of torch singing - as much more than the familiar tune of a woman's lamenting her own willing deception and passivity. She takes us into the space between music and language, allowing us to view torch singing not only as an expression of burgeoning desire but also of a more firmly resolved resistance and promise of change. It is an engaging read for performing arts and music professionals, and instructors in mass media and experimental ethnography.
