‘Morrison writes with a reckless respect for the truth’ Guardian
On Memoir is a gloriously freewheeling exploration of narrative non-fiction, its challenges, ethics and charms, and its power to move and change us. From AI to Ethics to Politics to Sex, there is something for every reader and every writer in this modern classic.
Gleaned from a lifetime as a passionate reader of others’ lives, as well as an unflinchingly honest chronicler of his own, Morrison’s A-Z is a trove of thoughtful literary exploration, amusing observations and fascinating discoveries.
‘[Morrison's] prose has the diamond cut of a poet's eye, and his story is suffused with warmth and longing … an outstanding work of family literature’ Independent
