The Complete Polysyllabic Spree

‘An engaged and engaging ramble around one reader’s mind’ The Times
This is not a book of reviews. This is not a book that sneers at other books. This is a book about reading - about enjoying books wherever and however you find them.
Nick Hornby is first and foremost a reader and he approaches books like the rest of us: hoping to pick up one he can’t put down. The Complete Polysyllabic Spree is a diary of sorts, charting his reading life over two years. It is a celebration of why we read - its pleasures, its disappointments and its surprises. And above all, it is for you - the ever hopeful reader.
‘Not only does it make you want to read more but, like all great books, it’s also terrific company’ Metro
‘For anyone whose idea of a good time is arguing with friends about their favourite books…amusing and contagiously enthusiastic’ Big Issue
