Punk Avenue: Inside the New York City Underground, 1972-1982Paperback, 2 May 2017

An intimate account of Paris-born author Phil Marcade's first ten years in the United States, where--after drifting from Boston to the West Coast and back--he wound up in New York City and became deeply immersed in the fledgling punk rock scene. With brilliant, often hilarious prose, Marcade's book is, according to revered radio personality James "The Hound" Marshall, "historically important, invaluable in fact, but also a fun, fast, nasty read."
