<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The first ever selection of lyrics by the iconic Scott Walker, hand picked by the artist.</b> <p/>Scott Walker is undoubtedly one of the most brilliant, serious, and intelligent avant-garde artists today. As one of the greatest lyricists of the 20th century and front man of globally loved pop trio, The Walker Brothers, Walker commands huge devotion. A major event, <i>Sundog</i> is the first ever selection of Walker's lyrics curated by the artist himself, published for the first time with a stunning introduction by Eimear McBride.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Scott Walker</b> is quite simply a cultural icon. He is an American-born, British singer-songwriter, composer and record producer. He is known for his distinctive voice and for the unorthodox career path which has taken him from 1960s pop icon to 21st century avant-garde musician. Originally coming to fame in the mid-1960s singing orchestral pop ballads as the frontman of The Walker Brothers, Walker went on to a solo career balancing a light entertainment with increasing artistic innovations in arrangement and writing perspective. Since the mid-1980s Walker has revived his solo career while drastically reinventing his artistic and compositional methods, via a series of acclaimed and vividly avant-garde albums. The change in approach has been compared to "Andy Williams reinventing himself as Stockhausen". <p/><b>Eimear McBride</b> trained at Drama Centre London. Her debut novel <i>A Girl Is a Half-formed Thing</i> received a number of awards including the Goldsmiths Prize, the Baileys Women's Prize for Fiction and Irish Novel of the Year. She occasionally writes and reviews for the <i>Guardian</i>, <i>TLS and the </i>New Statesman</i>.
