Cover of Lavinia Greenlaw: Importance of Music to Girls (ePUB)

The Importance of Music to Girls tells the story of the adventures that music leads us into – getting drunk, falling in love, cutting our hair, wanting to change the world – as well as the darker side of the adolescent years: loneliness, bullying, getting arrested. Lavinia Greenlaw remembers the music that inspired and accompanied her, and compelled her generation. From fancying Donny Osmond, to wanting to be Ian Curtis, this is a razor-sharp memoir, filtered through the medium of music.
