<b>From the acclaimed author of</b> <b><i>Long Bright River </i>and <i>Heft</i>, a novel that allows us to take a peek behind the curtain of the music industry</b><br><br>Liz Moore shows us the inner workings of an industry we’ve been fascinated with for decades. In these fourteen linked episodes, we meet a cast of characters from all the corners of the industry that we’ve come to glamourize. There’s the arrogantly hip, twenty-six-year-old A&R man; the rising young singer-songwriter; the established, arena-filling rock star on the verge of a midlife crisis; the type-A female executive with the heavy social calendar; and other recognizable figures.<br><br>Set in the sleek offices, high-tech recording studios, and grungy downtown clubs of New York, <i>The Words of Every Song</i> offers an authenticity drawn from Liz Moore’s own experience and brings an insider’s touch to its depiction of the music industry and its denizens.
