FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF ABOUT A BOY
31 Songs is best-selling author Nicky Hornby''s ultimate desert island disks
Through thirty-one songs that he either loves or has loved, Nick Hornby tells us what music means to his life. These personal and passionate pieces - refreshingly free of pretension - are a celebration of the joy that certain songs have given him.
