About this product

Product Information

THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER 'Writing about yourself is a funny business...But in a project like this, the writer has made one promise, to show the reader his mind. In these pages, I've tried to do this.' -Bruce Springsteen, from the pages of Born to Run In 2009, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band performed at the Super Bowl's halftime show. The experience was so exhilarating that Bruce decided to write about it. That's how this extraordinary autobiography began. Over the past seven years, Bruce Springsteen has privately devoted himself to writing the story of his life, bringing to these pages the same honesty, humour and originality found in his songs. He describes growing up Catholic in Freehold, New Jersey, amid the poetry, danger and darkness that fuelled his imagination, leading up to the moment he refers to as 'The Big Bang': seeing Elvis Presley's debut on The Ed Sullivan Show. He vividly recounts his relentless drive to become a musician, his early days as a bar band king in Asbury Park, and the rise of the E Street Band. With disarming candour, he also tells for the first time the story of the personal struggles that inspired his best work, and shows us why the song 'Born to Run' reveals more than we previously realized. Born to Run will be revelatory for anyone who has ever enjoyed Bruce Springsteen, but this book is much more than a legendary rock star's memoir. This is a book for workers and dreamers, parents and children, lovers and loners, artists, freaks or anyone who has ever wanted to be baptized in the holy river of rock and roll. Rarely has a performer told his own story with such force and sweep. Like many of his songs ('Thunder Road', 'Badlands', 'Darkness on the Edge of Town', 'The River', 'Born in the U.S.A.', 'The Rising', and 'The Ghost of Tom Joad', to name just a few), Bruce Springsteen's autobiography is written with the lyricism of a singular songwriter and the wisdom of a man who has thought deeply about his experiences.

Book was a bit musty - had to wipe the cover down (not sure where it had been stored - somewhere damp and dusty, perhaps?). Was fine after that though.

    a Must for any Bruce Fan

    Oh my definitely one of my best buys ever, if your a Bruce fan this is a Must. it is written by the man himself.. from his early childhood, so the details are good and you feel like you can picture him doing these normal things. As I say if your a Huge Bruce fan, this is a must, its fantastic, I cannot put it down...well I have to at times as I suffer with migraines,( that's the only reason it left my hands lol ) so I am going to invest in Audio one.. so I can hear the man himself read the strory to me. Yes a fab buy... lovely condition and one I shall treasure for a while.

    A slow starter that takes some effort

    I've been a Springsteen fan since childhood - "Dancing in the Dark" was the first 7" single I ever bought! I was interested in the book as I was keen to learn more about Springsteen and his inspiration in life. Although good value for me personally the book was a slow starter covering much of his childhood upbringing. Whilst this undoubtedly had an influence on him as an artist I have to be honest and say it took me some effort to get through the early chapters. It did however provide unknown information on his family life. Overall it is a good book and I'm sure writing it was a good form of release for Springsteen. Other fans will learn from it and I'm glad I bought and read it.

  • Excellent - recommended

    Honestly written and full of detail. I'm not a huge Springsteen fan but I love this book and you get a real appreciation of a man working for his art.
