It's #StaffPickFriday! 🎉🎊 With the devastating cuts proposed to the NEA and other cultural institutions, we are thinking a lot about culture this week. Andreas (@thelandisdreaming) on the main floor recommends the brilliant Nato Thompson's "Culture As Weapon: The Art of Influence in Everyday Life". • He says: Thompson manages to construct an intricate but accessible examination of the ways we make and are made by culture. Timely reading for the post-truth era. • Timely, indeed. Find it on our new nonfiction table on the main floor and in the basement! #staffpick #strandstaffpick #NatoThompson #CultureAsWeapon #savethearts #artisnotaluxury @melvillehouse (at Strand Book Store)
