Seliger Mark The Music Book
Like a great piece of rock music, an artful photograph is part harmony and part unexpected chaos. Mark Seliger is an artist who chronicles the music world and transposes its idioms to the photographic medium. The result is unexpected yet carefully composed. Fresh, lively and original, his style adapts itself to his subjects. Not overly mannered, his images crackle with life and a dare one say it a beauty. Appearing in notable magazines such as Rolling Stone and Vanity Fair, his works feature the biggest music legends of the '80s through today such as Bono, Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen, Snoop Dog, and Dolly Parton. Text in English, German, French, Spanish and Italian.

Hodkinson Mark No One Round Here Reads Tolstoy. Memoirs of a Working-Class Reader
Mark Hodkinson grew up among the terrace houses of Rochdale in a house with just one book. Today, Mark is an author, journalist and publisher. He still lives in Rochdale but is now surrounded by 3,500 titles, at the last count. No One Round Here Reads Tolstoy is his story of growing up a working-class lad during the 1970s and 1980s. It’s about the schools, the music, the people – but pre-eminently and profoundly the books and authors that led the way and shaped his life. It’s about a family who didn’t see the point of reading, and a troubled grandad who taught Mark the power of stories. It’s also a story of how writing and reading has changed over the last five decades.
