Tease Hair + Body Parlor Hosts Book Signing During Lakewood's Chocolate Walk

Tease Hair + Body Parlor will host a book-signing for “Rust Belt Chic: The Cleveland Anthology,” October 25 from 6 - 9 p.m.

“Rust Belt Chic: The Cleveland Anthology” is a collection of essays by the region’s best-known authors about life and culture of Cleveland and the revitalization of Rust Belt cities.

Edited by Richey Piiparinen, an urban researcher at Case Western Reserve, and Anne Trubek, a professor at Oberlin College, "Rust Belt Chic: The Cleveland Anthology," provides an inside-out snapshot of the city, containing contributions by established authors such as Connie Schultz and Michael Ruhlman as well as 47 others. 

Local visual artists Garie Waltzer and Randall Tiedman are featured and profiled. Rust Belt Chic tells stories about failure (mills closing), conflict (Harvey Pekar's constant grousing), growth (a thriving Iraqi immigrant community) and renewal (moving away only to, finally, return home). Put together, these stories create a new narrative about Cleveland that incorporates but deepens and widens the familiar tropes of manufacturing, stadiums and comebacks.
