My favourite book I've READ ALL YEAR. I actually know who Jarvis Cocker is and I am so obsessed with him. Love this book so much for so many reasons. JARVIS IS MY IDOL!!!!!!!!
"I came to this place tonight looking for one thing, just one thing and that is FEELING CALLED LOVE." - Jarvis Cocker, Munich Pulp performance, 1996
"This is not a life story. It's a loft story." - Jarvis Cocker, Good Pop, Bad Pop
Jarvis Cocker was Pulp's lead singer and songwriter, a post-punk English band who were "born" on 4 August 1980. Jarvis Cocker uncovers the many nostalgic treasures of his loft and recounts the story as it fits alongside it his journey to fame. Superb writing from an inspirational, excellent, welcoming jack-of-all-trades (English literature academic, songwriter, guitarist, pianist, and wonderful performer like no other).
