In these pages, I’ve tried to do this.” —\nBruce Springsteen\n, from the pages of\nBorn to Run\nIn 2009,\nBruce Springsteen\nand the\nE Street Band\nperformed at the Super Bowl’s halftime show. The experience was so exhilarating that Bruce decided to write about it. That’s how this extraordinary autobiography began.\nOver the past seven years, Bruce Springsteen has privately devoted himself to writing the story of his life, bringing to these pages the same honesty, humor, and originality found in his songs.\nHe describes growing up Catholic in Freehold, New Jersey, amid the poetry, danger, and darkness that fueled his imagination, leading up to the moment he refers to as “The Big Bang”: seeing Elvis Presley’s debut on\nThe Ed Sullivan Show\n.\nHe vividly recounts his relentless drive to become a musician, his early days as a bar band king in\nAsbury Park\n, and the rise of the\nE Street Band.\nWith disarming candor, he also tells for the first time the story of the personal struggles that inspired his best work, and shows us why the song “Born to Run” reveals more than we previously realized.\nBorn to Run\nwill be revelatory for anyone who has ever enjoyed\nBruce Springsteen\n, but this book is much more than a legendary rock star’s memoir. This is a book for workers and dreamers, parents and children, lovers and loners, artists, freaks, or anyone who has ever wanted to be baptized in the holy river of rock and roll.\nRarely has a performer told his own story with such force and sweep. Like many of his songs (“Thunder Road,” “Badlands,” “Darkness on the Edge of Town,” “The River,” “Born in the U.S.A.,” “The Rising,” and “The Ghost of Tom Joad,” to name just a few), Bruce Springsteen’s autobiography is written with the lyricism of a singular songwriter and the wisdom of a man who has thought deeply about his experiences.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Buy3X.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52911151448288,"sku":"9781471157820_Kitabay Jaipur_57-F2","price":18.24,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.carouselstore.co.uk\/products\/born-to-run","provider":"Carousel Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
