The result is an extraordinary, complex portrait of \"white girls,\" as Als dubs them--an expansive but precise category that encompasses figures as diverse as Truman Capote and Louise Brooks, Michael Jackson and Flannery O'Connor. In pieces that hairpin between critique and meditation, fiction and nonfiction, high culture and low, the theoretical and the deeply personal, Als presents a stunning portrait of a writer by way of his subjects, and an invaluable guide to the culture of our time.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"McSweeney's","offers":[{"title":"White Girls | Hilton Als | Paperback | 9781940450254 | Used: Very Good | Essays 1652284 (temp: 5)","offer_id":48914039079064,"sku":"1652284","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/51W_HIE9VPL.jpg?v=1776971397","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/white-girls-1","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
