Publisher's Synopsis

Let a literature professor and a musical theater artist guide you through the Taylor Swift canon from Shakespeare to the Bronte sisters to Robert Frost!

"Even the most obsessive Swiftie will discover new Easter eggs in these pages--and have their old knowledge of the singer's literary brilliance confirmed by a PhD-carrying literature professor." - Oprah Daily

Learn what New Romantics has to do with the old Romantics. Get to know the Gothic monsters haunting Midnights. Spot Taylor's many Great Gatsby references. Discover what Taylor Swift and Emily Dickinson have in common. And find your new favorite tortured poet!

With full-color illustrations guiding you through the literary eras of Dr. Swift (yes, she has an honorary Ph.D.), it s a perfect gift for the Swiftie in your life. Packed with fun facts, entertaining analysis, and literary-themed playlists that fans will love, Taylor Swift by the Book will turn anyone from a Taylor Swift lover into a Taylor Swift scholar.
