Is it worth it purchasing this book? And, yes I know that it has a notoriously bad reputation.
Is Morrissey really as big as they say he is Latin America? I know he has toured there frequently, but that seems almost like an exaggeration of his importance and influence there.
They certainly want to push the narrative of a honorary Los Angeleno for him.
And possibly even a honorary Latino/ Mexican, despite him obviously being so proudly British… even if he’s critical of his own country of birth.
Well, I think that’s a contradiction of fairly recent statements, no?ever since first hearing the New York Dolls, Morrissey has secretly wanted to be an American. Even his band was named after Patti Smith. Which is funny, because The Smiths are usually recognized as being one of the most British of bands. But that’s Morrissey for ya!

The Larry King interview he gave an entirely different answer to him.
Yes, I definitely know Morrissey loves a lot of American bands/ musicians and classic Hollywood film actors.
I think it’s 2014? 2015? The Larry King interview.I’m not surprised with contradictions from Morrissey, especially when he’s giving the interviewer an answer they are not expecting.
Anyway, what was said in the Larry King interview? That was so long ago.
I’m only familiar with, or can remember what was said in the recent interview he did with Sam for Central.
Where do you get that idea? (both ideas)?ever since first hearing the New York Dolls, Morrissey has secretly wanted to be an American. Even his band was named after Patti Smith.

I would honestly have to watch the interview again. Although, it stands out in my mind, the band choosing a very generic common name that could encompass any genre of music… it might’ve been something along those lines.I don’t remember what he was asked or said in reply.

Don’t quote me on that, though.
I do remember some more of his Morrissey- like answers better.
Morrissey doesn't even write in proper English any more. For years now, he's used American English spelling, which I find just baffling.
During a cost of living crisis, you’ll burn whatever you can get your hands.I just looked up List of the Lost on Bookscan and it has sold 7 copies so far in 2022, in the UK.
Now I'm kind of intrigued as to who those 7 people are...
Oh wow - I'd forgotten that review, but it's just brilliant. Better written and more artistic in practically every line than the novel itself. The fact that after such a massive pile-on it ends with a score of 9.2 out of 10 just adds to the hilarity!Here's a review, which is an absolute riot and probably longer than the novel itself.

Not named after David & Maureen Smith then? I believe this FAR more likely —— F A R …ever since first hearing the New York Dolls, Morrissey has secretly wanted to be an American.

This is arrant bollocks. The Smiths were named after Hindley's sister and her husband.ever since first hearing the New York Dolls, Morrissey has secretly wanted to be an American.
