Zustand: New. Stephin Merritt es el creador de bandas como The Magnetic Fields, The 6ths, Future Bible Heroes o The Gothic Archies, para las que ha escrito un buen número de canciones desde finales de los 80 hasta la actualidad. Su proyecto principal, The Magnetic Fields, es una de las bandas más relevantes del pop de las últimas dos décadas. Ha publicado nueve álbumes y diversos singles y EP, entre los que destaca "69 Love Songs" (Merge, 1999), uno de los discos más ambiciosos y desaforados del pop de todos los tiempos por su extensión y su sorprendente capacidad de vehicular el tema del amor el motivo por antonomasia de la música popular desde cualquier estilo o forma musical imaginable. El universo literario de Merritt del que este volumen quiere ser un reflejo a partir de 100 canciones de su proyecto principal destila ironía, humor, sarcasmo, dulzura, melancolía, amargura y una inventiva y capacidad de rima sin parangón en la música popular. Si bien las canciones no pueden separarse de su música, este libro quiere reivindicar su aspecto literario, muchas veces pasado por alto a la hora de abordar el trabajo de una banda. Si atendemos a este aspecto, puede que Merritt sea uno de los más lúcidos y prolíficos escritores que mejor ha sabido retratar el amor y las relaciones sentimentales de nuestro tiempo. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First Edition, 1st printing. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. 'A one-of-a-kind celebration of the 101 two-letter words allowed in Scrabble.' [] "Rolling Stone has called singer-songwriter Stephin Merritt of the Magnetic Fields 'the Cole Porter of his generation'; O, The Oprah Magazine has hailed cartoonist Roz Chast as 'the wryest pen since Dorothy Parker's.' Together they have crafted a wonderfully witty book that is sure to prove useful to Scrabble players and Words With Friends addicts--and to delight anyone in thrall to the weirder corners of the English language. With the mordant wit and clever wordplay of Edward Gorey or Shel Silverstein, Stephin Merritt has written an original four-line rhyming poem for each of the 101 two-letter words included in The Official Scrabble Players Dictionary. Here are poems about familiar words (such as at, go, hi, no, and up) as well as obscure ones (such as aa, ka, oe, qi, xu). And every one of the 101 poems is accompanied by a full-color illustration by the incomparable cartoonist Roz Chast. [] 101 Two-Letter Words is perfect for any language lover or Scrabble player (it may even improve your score!)." [jacket copy] "HA!"--Elif Batuman. "This little book of tiny words / by Stephin Merritt is superb; / it's funny and it's useful too. / (This is the Neil Gaiman blurb.)"--Neil Gaiman. "When I have no Scrabble move, / I really cannot bear it. / From aa to za, help has arrived-- / Why, thank you, Stephin Merritt!"--Lemony Snicket. "Vaguely Seussian."--Margaret Eb, Brooklyn Magazine. Fine AS NEW hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a bright NF (tiny scratch) jacket. Quite presentable. Chast, Roz (illustrator).…
