{"product_id":"nat-hentoff-reader","title":"Nat Hentoff Reader","description":"From the Bill of Rights, freedom of speech, and civil rights to jazz, blues and country music, Nat Hentoff has written about American life for decades, in the  Atlantic Monthly , the  New Yorker , the  Village Voice , the  Wall Street Journal , and  JazzTimes,  among countless other publications. The  New York Times  has hailed Hentoff's work as \"an invigorating and entertaining reminder of why freedom of expression matters.\" The  Washington Post Book World  has called Hentoff \"an old-fashioned music lover who likes, as Charlie Parker once put it,'to listen to the stories' that good music tells.\" Nat Hentoff is a legend.And now, for the first time, here are his most important writings of the past twenty years,the quintessential Hentoff on everything from Cardinal John O'Connor to Merle Haggard, racism and political correctness in the classroom to Lester Young, Dizzy Gillespie to the censorship of Huckleberry Finn. Controversial? You bet. Whatever the topic,  The Nat Hentoff Reader  shows a man of passion and insight, of streetwise wit and polished eloquence-a true American original.","brand":"Hachette Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":54227565838680,"sku":"9780306810848","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780306810848__6774b877e993f.jpg?v=1741134723","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/nat-hentoff-reader","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
