Hornby for the Holidays!
This holiday season, McSweeney’s is excited to release Songbook — a brand-new collection of essays by Nick Hornby on his favorite songs and songwriters. This book will be in hardcover, complete with a compilation CD filled with many songs discussed in the book. If you like Nick Hornby and you like music, this is a ‘you got your chocolate in my peanut butter’ moment.
Pre-order your book online today. We’ll guarantee your book arrives to you or your loved ones in time for the holidays.*
Proceeds from Songbook will benefit The TreeHouse Trust, a U.K. charity that helps to educate children with autism and related communication disorders, and 826 Valencia, a non-profit writing lab based in San Francisco.
Sounds like a sure-fire hit to me. Related to McSweeney’s and music, the Chicago Reader recently reviewed their current tour with They Might Be Giants. Unfortunately,
archival material from the reader is pay-per-use, so click here to buy the story if it’s worth $1.95 to you… If it’s not worth $1.95 (and really, for whom would it be?), the gist was that TMBG were more fun than the readers.
