"Hipster culture" as a book category groups works that explore or embody the aesthetics, values, tastes and contradictions of contemporary indie/urban subcultures — the embrace of the vintage, artisanal and obscure; the DIY ethic; indie music, coffee, craft beer and small-batch food scenes; fashion and thrifted style; and a mix of irony and authenticity. It includes memoirs and fiction about young creative lives and gentrifying neighborhoods, cultural criticism and essays on authenticity, consumption and trend cycles, practical guides to DIY crafts, barista and brewing handbooks, zine-style art and photography books, and satirical takes on lifestyle obsession. Common themes are identity, urban change, nostalgia, aesthetic curation, commodified authenticity and the tension between community and commodification; the tone ranges from earnest and nostalgic to wry and critical. This category appeals to readers interested in contemporary urban culture, design, music, food and social commentary, and often crosses into travel, design, sociology and culinary genres.
