Forum members might be interested in the following recently published book:
The author gave an 'illustrated' (by musical examples) talk as part of the Woodstock Literary Festival just as the book was published.
He was also interviewed on Radio 4 in the Today programme; some people may have heard that.
I enjoyed the talk (and was part of the small group that provided the 'illustrations'), and have enjoyed what I have read of the book so far (it's competing for attention with the Booker shortlist). So if you are looking for a Christmas present suggestion.......
