culturetas.es texts - englischlehrer.de The Jordans never spoke of the exam, not until their son, Dick, was 12 years old. It was on his birthday that Mrs. Jordan first mentioned the subject in his presence, and the anxious manner of her speech caused her husband to answer sharply. “Forget about it,” he said. “He’ll do all right.” They were at the breakfast table, and the boy looked up from his plate curiously.

The boy rose and wandered toward that part of the living room that had been “his” corner since infancy. “Why did it have to rain today?” His father, now slumped into an armchair with the Government newspaper, rattled the sheets in vexation. “Why, Dad?” “Because it does, that’s all.” Dick puckered his brow. “Dad,” he said, “how far away is the sun?” “I know, Dad. “This is different.

Must-Read Books About Pop Music, Politics, and Revolution We can talk all we like about the importance of pop music as a culturally relevant form of art (and we do), but the fact remains that the politically charged hit, or at least the song that gets picked up and tacked on to some sort of political upheaval or social change, is a product of yesteryear. This is nowhere more evident than in Mark Kurlansky’s newest book, Ready for a Brand New Beat, which is sold as a book on how the 1965 Martha and the Vandellas hit “Dancing in the Street” became a rallying cry “for a changing America,” but is more a condensed history of the civil rights movement in the 1960s. Bound for Glory, Woody Guthrie Even though Guthrie’s 1943 autobiography is partially fictionalized, it’s difficult to overlook the importance of American music’s version of Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath, and the influence it probably had on a young Jewish boy from Minnesota named Robert Zimmerman.
