Table of ContentsReviewsTender, clever and as funny as it gets... a heart-piercing joy. - Lauren Laverne Heartfelt, hilarious and beautifully written, Broken Greek is a childhood memoir like no other - a rapt testament to music's extraordinary power to root you in the world when little else seems to be doing the trick. - Cathy Newman Oh, how I love Pete Paphides and this book. He can't write a paragraph that isn't funny or moving or insightful and often all three at once. For someone from a refugee family, like me, it just reads so true, but it's also a painting of another life so rich, so deep, that they should hang it in the National Gallery. - Daniel Finkelstein, Associate Editor at The Times Author Information"Pete Paphides started his career in music journalism at Melody Maker before going on to write for Time Out, the Guardian, Mojo, Q, Observer Music Monthly and The Times, where he spent five years as their Chief Rock Critic. He has made several documentaries for BBC Radio 4, including 'Lost Albums', 'Follow-Up Albums', 'The Songs of Molly Drake' and 'Good Grief: The Story of ""Peanuts""'. He has been a regular contributor to BBC Four music documentaries and hosted two series of 'Vinyl Revival' for BBC 6 Music. Since 2015, he has hosted a weekly music show for Soho Radio and also runs his own record label, Needle Mythology. He is married to the writer and journalist Caitlin Moran. Broken Greek is his first book." Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
