Nick Hornby's 31 songs (2003)
Op de achterflap van de vertaling van '31 songs' staat de volgende introductie: Muziek speelt altijd een belangrijke rol in de boeken van Nick Hornby. In 31 songs beschrijft hij op een zeer herkenbare manier zijn favoriete popliedjes en de enorme invloed die deze muziek op zijn leven en werk had en heeft. Aan de hand van de werken van onder anderen Bruce Springsteen, Patti Smith, Van Morrison en Nelly Furtado geeft Hornby niet alleen zijn persoonlijke mening over popmuziek maar schetst hij ook de achtergronden van zijn succesvolle romans High fidelity en Een jongen (about a boy). |
