Beskrivning
Music, Memory and Memoir provides a unique look at the contemporary cultural phenomenon of the music memoir and, leading from this, the way that music is used to construct memory. Via analyses of memoirs that consider punk and pop, indie and dance, this text examines the nature of memory for musicians and the function of music in creating personal and cultural narratives. This book includes innovative and multidisciplinary approaches from a range of contributors consisting of academics, critics and musicians, evaluating this phenomenon from multiple academic and creative practices, and examines the contemporary music memoir in its cultural and literary contexts.

Recensioner i media

Skilfully fuses the several storytelling perspectives that emerge within the featured memoirs ... The collection quite ably underlines why our music experiences shape our identities, which is a process that is both accentuated and problematised by music memoirs, thus necessitating the incisive analysis that emerges here.
