In this month's Q magazine 50 of the best ever music books are listed, "Morrissey & Marr - The Severed Alliance" is amongst them.
Q says "Rogan's overview of The Smiths is impassioned, thorough and almost comically erudite - the author suggests that early B-side Jeane, may be named after Morrissey's aunt jeane Sheppard while it might be worth noting that the bastard child of Oscar Wilde's friend Lillie Langtry was named Jeane. But the final frisson with a book that had Morrissey wishing Rogan death in a m3 pile up is the way moz is pursued by someone with an eccentricity to riva his own. The jacket blurb explains how Rogan once wrote.in isolation for an entire year without speaking to another human being."
