Description
Following Dieci brani da ascoltare almeno una volta nella vita (“10 songs you
should listen to before you die”) and the books on Tim Burton and Hayao
Miyazaki, Jacopo Caneva’s latest work carries out a short, but in-depth study
on the concepts of loneliness and nostalgia in Pink Floyd’s lyrics, from The
Dark Side of the Moon to The Wall. The young writer unveils the common
ground of apparently different lyrics: the memory of Syd Barrett, the genius
and first leader of the group, the “crazy diamond” who gave the band the
name of Pink Floyd, delivering it to myth, disappearing in anonymity after
troublesome years. The book is a tribute to the legendary English rock-band
and a celebration of the recently released The Endless River, a new album of
previously unreleased songs.
