Stuff I've Been Reading




A brand new installment in Nick Hornby's acclaimed reading diary - rich, witty and inspiring

'Read what you enjoy, not what bores you,' Nick Hornby tells us. And in this new collection of his columns from the Believer magazine he shows us how it's done.

Including his thoughts on books by George Orwell, J.M. Barrie, Muriel Spark, Claire Tomalin, Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, Jennifer Egan, Ian McEwan and many, many more, this wonderfully entertaining journey in reading differs from all other reviews or critical appreciations - it takes into account the role that books actually play in our lives.

Praise for Stuff I've Been Reading

Hornby's reading recommendations are idiosyncratic and self-aware

The Sunday Times

Witty and shrewd ... An utterly decent bloke with surprisingly eclectic tastes. He is as likely to be reading Orwell on Dickens as a book about comedy writing
