Book Launch: Paul Elie presents The Last Supper: Art, Faith, Sex, and Controversy in the 1980s
Local Fort Greene author Paul Elie (author of the acclaimed books The Life You Save May Be Your Own and Reinventing Bach) takes the stage at Greenlight to launch The Last Supper: a vivid and revealing new cultural history of the 1980s. An immersive group portrait, Elie traces the beginning of our age—in which religion is both surging and in decline—through the lives and work of Martin Scorsese, Madonna, Andy Warhol, U2, and many others. The Last Supper is a groundbreaking account of the origins of our postsecular present, and the moment when popular culture became the site of religious strife—strife that set the stage for some of the most salient political and cultural clashes of our day. Elie discusses the book in-depth on stage, before an audience Q&A and signing.
