Collating classic music press and glossy magazine articles, "Morrissey in Conversation" describes the rocker's crazy-quilt career in his own words. It's all here -- how the Smiths created 1980s indie rock; the anti-rock credentials, feminist sympathies, and militant vegetarianism; Morrissey's obsession with pop culture and girl groups, his (a)sexuality, and his sardonic salvos against the mediocre. This is the story of how one man bewitched the '80s, peaked in the '90s, and triumphed in the new millennium.
