"You, Me and Morrissey"
Synopsis:
"You, Me and Morrissey" is a collection of autobiographical short stories capturing snapshots of love, loss, bigotry, violence, artistic birth, and mental illness. Each story is set to the soundtrack of a Smiths or Morrissey title or lyric, and documents the trials of youth and adulthood, and how the music and the ever-present spectre of British music icon Morrissey influenced and altered the paths of the authors forever.
From 1980's humdrum Texas towns, to a San Francisco meeting with Morrissey himself, the stories revolve around the ups and downs of balancing an art-driven life with the insanities of day to day living in the "real world."
Author Comment:
if you ever grew up with and was obsessed by the music of a particular band-a band or singer that got you through your roughest times-you will get where this book is coming from.
