Rereading America

Rereading America has remained the most widely adopted book of its kind because of its unique approach to the issue of cultural diversity. Unlike other multicultural composition readers that settle for representing the plurality of American voices and cultures, Rereading America encourages students to grapple with the real differences in perspectives that arise in our complex society. With extensive editorial apparatus that puts readings from the mainstream into conversation with readings from the margins, Rereading America provokes students to explore the foundations and contradictions of our dominant cultural myths.

He was misunderstood. But again, aren't we all? A very funny yet brutally honest autobiographical account of the first 25 turbulent years in the life of a very talented entertainer. Stay with him as he recounts his roots in a small town near Rochester, NY, life in New York City, the thrill of Broadway, and seeing the world as it comes crashing down time after time. Gary Colombo takes us on a wild roller coaster ride called "life as it happened." Hop on board and speed through 25 years of peaks, valleys, loops, and death-defying plunges as each story takes you on an unforgettable ride. The book is filled with the ups and downs of a life seeking fame and fortune. Be prepared to laugh, cry, be shocked and wonder about this Guy in the Red Socks who sings, dances, acts, writes, produces, directs. He is a renaissance man for the 21 Century! This is only Part 1 in the trilogy. It will get you hooked.
