Description
Songs Only You Know: A Memoir plunges listenersinto the Detroit hardcore punk scene with eighteen-year-old Sean and spans adark decade during which his father succumbs to crack addiction, his youngersister spirals into a fatal depression, and his sense of home crumbles. Sean’ssalvation is music, as well as the many eccentrics and outsiders he befriendsas front man of a band once referred to by Spin magazine as “an art-coremindfuck.” Sean’s prose whips from mordantly funny to searingly honest whileoffering an unflinching look at a family in crisis, low-rent music subculture,and the hard-earned identity of its author. A story of young manhood thatdeserves a place alongside Tobias Wolff’s In Pharaoh’s Army andNick Flynn’s Another Bullshit Night in Suck City, Songs Only You Know isa beautiful, devastating exploration of family, friends, and one young man’smusical dream. It marks the arrival of a fiercely original literary voice.
