The Words of Every Song
The Words of Every Song: A Novel | Liz Moore
2 posts | 5 read | 4 to read
The Words of Every Song is a literate and original debut novel in the form of fourteen linked episodes, each centered on a character involved with the music industry in some fashion. There’s the arrogantly hip, twenty-six-year-old A&R man; the rising young singer-songwriter; the established, arena-filling rock star on the verge of a midlife crisis; the type-A female executive with the heavy social calendar; and other recognizable figures. Set in the sleek offices, high-tech recording studios, and grungy downtown clubs of New York, The Words of Every Song offers an authenticity drawn from Liz Moore’s own experience and brings an insider’s touch to its depiction of the music industry and its denizens. From the Trade Paperback edition.

I want to like short stories, I really do, but I'm a long form reader at heart. This novel, told in 14 linked "episodes", may be my gateway into more short story reading. I really like how characters pop in and out of the book: one episode/story focuses on a specific character, who may then reappear as a peripheral character in a subsequent episode. #mountTBR #shoppingmyshelves

I don't have a copy of Heft in the house, but found in my mountainous TBR a copy of what I believe is Liz Moore's first novel. Based upon my love for The Unseen World, I'll be reading this sooner rather than later.
