Synopsis
In this collection of short essays, Hornby writes about 26 of his favorite songs--or rather, the 26 he liked best while he was writing the book. A companion of sorts to his novel HIGH FIDELITY, which features music-obsessed record store clerks forever making "best of" lists, SONGBOOK examines pop songs, the process by which they become lodged in the brain, and Hornby's own life. The package includes a compact disc that contains 11 of the songs discussed. A New York Times Notable Book for 2003.

Publisher's Note
The best-selling author of High Fidelity and About a Boy celebrates thirty-one of his favorite songs in a collection of intimate and witty essays about such musical renditions as Bruce Springsteen's "Thunder Road," "Heartbreaker" by Led Zeppelin, "Rain" by the Beatles, and Van Morrison's "Caravan." Original.

Industry Reviews
"[A] small, singular and delightfully passionate new book. SONGBOOK is a kind of prose equivalent of a mix-tape -- as the cover, with its evocation of a hand-labeled jewel-case insert, beautifully imparts."
New York Times Book Review - Gerald Marzorati (02/16/2003)
