Morrissey's favorite books

[Famous when dead]

Do you guys know if these are compiled somewhere? I've seen the list of all the songs mentioned, but not sure of all the books, poems, movies mentioned?

The Autobiography online index is sadly gone and not available via Wayback.
I have added in lots from the book and the pains a few of us have gone to can be seen here:

Category:Influences - Morrissey-solo Wiki

www.morrissey-solo.com

With Film & TV as an example:

Category:Influences on Morrissey - Film and Television - Morrissey-solo Wiki

As always: in progress.

and besides, I think if we take any collection of the works of the writer we want to read, we are always waiting for a lot of wonderful discoveries, especially if it is a classic)

If you do a search of reviews when Autobiography came out, it was generally deemed a classic.

There's a text excerpt here -

And an 8 minute audio excerpt read by actor David Morrissey -

If you want to be a fan, you must own your own hard copy. Otherwise you're only on probation

''A Hidden Life'' 2019 by Terrence Malick. This has nothing to do with Morrissey. I just wanted to share. Actual. There was a discussion about films somewhere, but I didn't find it.

I love Terrence Malick and wasn't aware of this film, so thank you for posting about it!

This is one of the reasons the canned/e-mailed interviews - usually with Ms. Dodwell - are lacking in comparison to earlier days. No one asks him what he is reading or watching these days - and even asking about music he is listening to has fallen by the wayside. We can infer, perhaps, that he's read a fair amount of James Baldwin in recent years but, beyond that, the reading list is a question mark.

She did ask him that in her last (?) interview.

Since he appears to enjoy sharing stuff on his blog/Central, it'd be nice if he shared about this kind of thing.
