Tony Wilson book 'From Manchester With Love' gets US release
A book about Manchester legend Tony Wilson will be published in the spring.
From Manchester With Love: The Life And Opinions Of Tony Wilson is a biography, but also somewhat of an oral history, and contains a collection of quotes and wisdoms from the Factory legend from throughtout the years.
The critically acclaimed book by Paul Morley was published last year in the UK and received rave reviews. One big fan is none other than Brian Eno who commented:
"Paul Morley writes about things you thought you knew about — and then shows you so many new facets. Reading From Manchester With Love I feel I understand the times we’ve lived through differently, better, and from new angles. The writing is compelling and musical, befitting its extraordinary subject. I never met Tony Wilson, but now I feel as though I knew him well — and I’m sorry that I didn’t."
The 624 page hardcover book arrives on April 5th and is available to pre-order.
