Описание: Stuff Ive Been Reading by Nick Hornby - the bestselling novelists rich, witty and inspiring reading diary. Read what you enjoy, not what bores you, Nick Hornby tells us. And in this new collection of his columns from the Believer magazine (taking off where The Complete Polysyllabic Spree finished), he shows us how its done.

Or at least, how he does it: whether plunging into a biography of Dickens whilst his children are destroying something in the room next door or devouring a whole series of childrens books whilst on holiday. Hornby is the intelligent, committed but sceptical reader wed all like to be. Admiring Ian McEwens On Chesil Beach, he points out a surprising anachronism.

Reading Cormac McCarthys The Road, he wonders why unflinching is a term of praise among critics. And who but Nick Hornby could successfully juxtapose a discussion of a book on the Band with one on the Stasi? These accounts of one readers experience of buying and reading, and sometimes not reading, books differ from all other reviews or critical appreciations - they take into account the role that books actually play in the lives of readers. This book, which is classic Hornby, confirms the novelists status as one of the worlds most exciting curators of culture.

It will be loved by fans of About a Boy and High Fidelity, as well as readers of Will Self, Zadie Smith, Stewart Lee and Charlie Brooker. Nick Hornby has captivated readers and achieved widespread critical acclaim for his comic, well-observed novels About a Boy, High Fidelity, How to be Good, A Long Way Down (shortlisted for the Whitbread Award), Slam and Juliet, Naked. His four additional works of non-fiction, Fever Pitch, 31 Songs (shortlisted for the National Book Critics Circle Award), The Complete Polysyllabic Spree and Pray are also available from Penguin.
