FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF ABOUT A BOY 31 Songs is
best-selling author Nicky Hornby's ultimate desert island disks
Through thirty-one songs that he either loves or has loved, Nick
Hornby tells us what music means to his life. These personal and
passionate pieces - refreshingly free of pretension - are a
celebration of the joy that certain songs have given him. Together
with additional writings on music from his column in the new Yorker
- seen in the UK for the first time - 31 Songs is for Hornby what
many of us have always wanted: a soundtrack to accompany life.
Winner of The National Book Critics Circle award, this funny and
touchingly personal book is a must for music fans everywhere.
'Original, well written and wholly lacking in pretension...as good
a book about pop music as I have read in many years and the most
accomplished of Hornby's books so far' Spectator 'Funny,
provocative, immensely readable. It is not simply about music...it
is about Hornby, and us, and about being alive. His enthusiasm is
such that he makes me want to be a better listener - and I can
offer no better compliment. A triumph' Tim Lott, Evening Standard
'Refreshing, candid, very moving. Reminds you why you loved music
before you knew enough to explain your love away' Uncut
