Dickens and Prince : A Particular Kind of Genius Hornby Nick (2022)

In Nick Hornbys original and joyful book, two great figures share the stage: Charles Dickens and Prince. These wildly different artists caught fire and lit up the world in ways no others could. Hornby explores where their magic came from, how they worked so hard and produced so much, and how they managed or surrendered to the restlessness and intensity of their creativity. With wit, curiosity and deep admiration, he traces their extraordinary lives, from difficult beginnings and the women they fell for to their limitless energy for work, their money and the movies, illuminating their very particular kind of genius.
