    33 REVOLUTIONS PER MINUTE, by Dorian Lynskey tracks the turbulent relationship between popular music and politics, through 33 pivotal songs that span seven decades and four continents, from Billie Holiday singing Strange Fruit in 1939 protesting the lynching of African Americans to Green Day raging against the Iraq war in American Idiot (2004).
    Each chapter of the book details one notable protest song, including information about the song's influence, its writing process, and the historical background surrounding the song's release.
    The Bob Dylan song discussed is Masters Of War.

    The book has been translated into French and Spanish.

    Thank you to Dorian Lynskey and Jürgen Wasser. [0925]
