Anthony DeCurtis Boeken

    Anthony De Curtis is een Amerikaanse auteur en muziekcriticus wiens werk diep ingaat op de analyse van muziek en cultuur. Met uitgebreide ervaring bij vooraanstaande muziek- en literatuurtijdschriften, brengt hij scherpzinnigheid en een analytische stijl in zijn schrijven. Zijn proza kenmerkt zich door het vermogen om muzikale fenomenen te verbinden met bredere sociale en culturele contexten, waardoor hij lezers complete en tot nadenken stemmende teksten biedt. De Curtis' benadering is geworteld in grondig onderzoek en een gepassioneerde interesse in het begrijpen van kunst en haar impact.

      Reedův životopis od Anthonyho DeCurtise vznikal až po Reedově smrti v roce 2013, má tedy oproti starším biografiím jednu velkou výhodu: možnost zachytit celý umělcův život až do smrti. Další nezpochybnitelnou výhodou je autorem přiznané dlouholeté přátelství s Lou Reedem. DeCurtis ve své knize nabízí komplexní pohled na Lou Reeda. Představuje ho jako umělce, ale i jako člověka, a zároveň svým způsobem i jako symbol. Čtenář tak má výtečnou možnost seznámit se s Lou Reedem takovým, jakým skutečně byl. Anebo se tomu alespoň v maximální možné míře přiblížit.
