In his monthly accounts of what he's read - along with what he may one day read - Nick Hornby brilliantly explores everything from the classic to the graphic novel, as well as poems, plays, sports books and other kinds of non-fiction. If he occasionally implores a biographer for brevity, or abandons a literary work in favour of an Arsenal match, then all is not lost. His writing, full of all the joy and surprise and despair that books bring him, reveals why we still read, even when there's football on TV, a pram in the hall or a good band playing at our local pub.
Nick Hornby is the bestselling author of nine novels, including High Fidelity, About a Boy, and Just Like You, as well as several works of nonfiction including Fever Pitch. His books have sold over 3.5 million copies in the UK, and many have been turned into successful films and TV series. He has been Oscar-nominated twice for his screenplays, and his TV work has won three Emmys. His work has been translated into more than 40 languages. He lives in London.
