This collection includes a selection of my essays, journalism, book reviews and music criticism. Although I have an extensive list of academic publications, I have only included two excerpts here. Instead I have focused on work that communicates with a wide audience.
I am a sociologist and writer, based in London. An author of seven books, editor of several collections and many articles and reviews, my career bridges academia and multiple other worlds. I've written about denial, Jews, antisemitism, metal - and the multilingual warning messages inside Kinder Surprise Eggs.
