"It has been said often enough that baby boomers are a television generation, but the very funny novel High Fidelity reminds that in a way they are the record-album generation as well. This funny novel is obsessed with music; Hornby's narrator is an early-thirtysomething English guy who runs a London record store. He sells albums recorded the old-fashioned way--on vinyl--and is having a tough time making other transitions as well, specifically adulthood. The book is in one sense a love story, both sweet and interesting; most entertaining, though, are the hilarious arguments over arcane matters of pop music. "
This is a second copy of this book I've registered, although not my favourite by Hornby !

Thank you so much for the RABCK! I love Hornby's books and really wanted to read this one. You really made my day!
I saw the movie some time ago but, as always, the book is far better. It has all of Hornby's elements, which I love. This book will be travelling again this week.
