"An Eye for the City," the new photography show at the University Art Museum, presents Italian cities and how they've suffered from failed urban planning.

Vincent Gallo's 'When' raw, truthful

Vincent Gallo, a self-confessed sexual compulsive, has recently released his debut record, When. It's a record full of sweet melodies that lazily weave in and out of Gallo's heart as he sings about forgotten, egocentric crushes.

'Growing' tells of rural family values

Part autobiography, part family memoir and part sickeningly cute, Craig Barnes' new novel "Growing Up True" celebrates the value of family in rural Colorado in the years after World War II. Or rather, it makes an effort to celebrate.
