Writes prose as well as he does lyrics, a genuine Penguin Classic.

TheNeverendingTBR @vivastory Good taste! 👌 3y
TheNeverendingTBR @Vansa I'm going to read it for the first time soon! 😌💫 3y
Bookwomble @Vansa Same - today's Morrissey is such a disappointment 😕 3y
Vansa @Bookwomble it's actually quite surprising,from the lyrics of the genuinely empathetic, thoughtful Smiths songs I would never have expected this change of mindset!! 3y
Bookwomble @Vansa If you watch Morrissey's interviews from The Smiths era, he does often come across as a pretentious douche bag. How he is the same person who wrote those lyrics is something of a mystery to me. At least we still have Johnny Marr ❤🎸❤ 3y

What a terrible shame that Morrissey is such an awful racist arsehole. We can still enjoy the music though. Can't recommend this book highly enough to Smiths fans.

AmyG Ha...my first thought was basically- Morrissey is an asshole. (edited) 5y
batsy Ugh. I love their music so much and him revealing himself to be a racist arsehole is a betrayal #whycantwehavegoodthings 5y
TrishB Such a disappointment.....I will be making a very similar post!! 😁 5y

Johnny Marr is a fascinating musician. He narrates his audiobook and his pure love of music is the big takeaway. He never tires of trying new ideas and continuing to evolve as an artist.

I love The Smiths and Morrissey but I don‘t think Morrissey himself would be fun to hang out with. This book was a struggle to read with his pretentiousness and it was written with absolutely no chapters or sections with most paragraphs spanning a page or two.
