	Michael Bracewell (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Michael Bracewell's most recent books are a non-fiction portrait of the last decade of the 20th century, entitled The Nineties: When Surface was Depth (2002), and Roxyism (2004), a new book about the art rock group Roxy Music.
		To an extent, Bracewell is to Middle England what David Lynch is to Middle America - his is a noticeably eloquent voice disguised by a surreal touch and a poetic sensibility.
		Bracewell’s concern is with the man outside of his time, unable or unwilling to join in.

	Review: The Nineties by Michael Bracewell \| Review \| Guardian Unlimited Books
		Michael Bracewell's musings on the past decade, reprinted in The Nineties, are illuminating and infuriating by turns
		To begin with the index of Bracewell's new book, The Nineties, is to encounter a range of reference which would do credit to the most streetwise of autodidacts, or the slickest of television arts-programme presenters: "Ace of Bass", "Adorno, Theodor", "Aerosmith", "Amin, Idi", "Amis, Martin", "Arbus, Diane", "Arden, Elizabeth", "Attitude", "Auden, WH", "Autobahn".
		Maybe this is Michael Bracewell: "The heavy bear who goes with me,/ A manifold honey to smear his face,/ Clumsy and lumbering here and there,/ The central ton of every place,/ The hungry beating brutish one/ In love with candy, anger, and sleep."

	IDEASFACTORY UK: Michael Bracewell
		I ask you, because I think Michael Bracewell is not only one of the most erudite and passionate cultural commentators we have, (he seems to care deeply and importantly for 'high' art and stuff we might dismiss as superficial crap), but he's also one of the finest English fiction writers of today.
		To his credit, Michael's interview with Tracy Emin is one of the few I've read where she doesn't come over as a total arsehole.
		What is clear is that Bracewell is in the privileged, (which I guess is not always the most lucrative), position of only interviewing people he holds in some sort of artistic or intellectual esteem.

	3am ESSAY: Book Review of Michael Bracewell’s - ‘Gilbert and George: The Rudimentary Pictures’ Milton Keynes ...
		Their art is love immortalised as a kind of shrine to mortality itself: the fundamental facts of existence, the reality check.’ This is part of what Bracewell wants us to recognise in their works, the defiant Romanticism in a world (and art world) of cynicism and hard nosed commercial realism.
		It is the Bracewell essay, a meditation on the borderline between reality and romanticism, alongside the extraordinary images, which makes the book such a compelling and searching artifact.
		For Bracewell they are ‘essentially modernist extensions of Dickensian characters’ and as such are part of London’s seething landscape, its ‘mutating nature’ where this battle ground cooks its big eros / thanatos urban stew.

	The Nineties (When Surface was Depth) - Michael Bracewell
		Michael Bracewell's The Nineties (or When Surface was Depth, for the American crowd) is an odd, long book.
		Punk is the defining moment for Bracewell (as for so many others), and that's really what he wants to focus on.
		Bracewell is relentless in his writing and heaping of cultural icons (and everyone and thing is a cultural icon, apparently), making for a tough slog.

		Leigh Bowery was the subject of a talk at Tate Britain, chaired by Michael Bracewell, and titled 'Big Time'.
		It was a frustrating evening, in that few questions about the man were satisfactorily answered, nor much of real value said; although as Sue Tilley pointed out, Leigh would have been 'thrilled' with the attention and the high-profile art establishment venue, but would rather not have been over-analysed.
		Bracewell did his best to steer his talkers towards academic debate, but they all side-tracked, and rambled away from whatever point was in hand.

		Michael's was once the private chapel of the Tempest family and dates from 1100.
		Records refer to a priest of Bracewell in 1135, and at Fountains Abbey, records refer to a chapel at Bracewell before 1147.
		The round-topped chancel arch is Norman, and was stripped of its plaster covering some years ago to reveal scalloped capitals, typical of Norman decoration.

	When Surface Was Depth: Death By Cappuccino And Other Reflections On Music And Culture In The 1990's \| The Onion - ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		When Surface Was Depth darts through an impressive range of topics, but the most memorable proves to be the weather, which has an uncanny tendency to churn and gurgle whenever Michael Bracewell starts thinking about culture.
		As a professed enemy of debased signifiers, Bracewell would have been wise to skip the meteorological portents.
		Fair with individual essays but overstretched on the ideas employed to tie them together, Bracewell falls victim to an ostensibly bracing thesis that never strays far from conventional wisdom.

	The Nineties: When Surface Was Depth by Michael Bracewell: ThePost.ie
		The book opens breezily, with Bracewell wryly recollecting the mindless way in which, during the early 90s, every emerging trend was labelled as `the new rock 'n' roll'.
		Bracewell notes how middle-class artists went to great lengths to disguise their social background to avoid any stigma of uncoolness.
		Even its essential premise is never carried through -- for all Bracewell's apparent concern with contemporary culture, his acuity is mostly reserved for figures from the 1970s and 1980s.

	The Ziggy Stardust Companion - Glam Rock - Michael Collins
		Pop stars such as Bowie and Marc Bolan bought the glam kit lock, stock and boa, but the boys on the street glided along the walkways and thoroughfares of housing estates with satin flares that hung on the hip and frayed at the floor, surreptitiously daring to paint a nail or two.
		In England Is Mine, Michael Bracewell celebrates the way Bowie "blurred the boundaries between the present and the future, male and female, and offered a DIY disguise for the pursuit of glamour in a synthetic age".
		The last point was to some extent the credo of both Roxy Music and Cockney Rebel, the only two groups to arrive with a look that was pure Glam, whereas Bowie, Bolan and Slade had previously turned out as mod, flower child and skinheads respectively.

	Michael Caine Guardian interview, part 4
		Over the past decade, Michael Caine has become a major personality within the iconography of English popular culture.
		He is as celebrated for representing the first pop glamour of London in the Sixties as he is for the films that first made him famous during that period.
		His own place, one feels, is secure: somewhere between the immortality of an icon and the everyday contentment of a movie star who owns five restaurants.
