Descrição do livro

In 1978, a seventeen-year-old from Crawley wrote a debut single based on a French existentialist novel. Nobody expected it to be the beginning of one of rock's most enduring careers.

THE CURE: 25 Songs. 25 Stories. is a song-by-song account of how Robert Smith and The Cure built something genuinely singular — a body of work that moves between gothic despair and pure pop joy without apology or contradiction. Each of the twenty-five chapters takes a single song as its subject: the cultural moment that surrounded its making, the personal circumstances that shaped it, and what it reveals about the artist behind it.

The songs covered include some of the most recognizable in alternative rock history — A Forest, Boys Don't Cry, Just Like Heaven, Lullaby, Lovesong, Friday I'm in Love — alongside deeper catalogue pieces that reward closer attention. The book traces the full arc: from the post-punk austerity of Seventeen Seconds and Pornography, through the pop breakthroughs of The Head on the Door and Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me, into the orchestral grandeur of Disintegration, and forward to Alone, the opening statement from Songs of a Lost World and one of the most affecting pieces Smith has recorded in forty-five years of music.

This is not a conventional biography. It is a book about what the songs mean, how they were made, and why they still matter.
