Publisher's Synopsis
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
AN APPLE BEST BOOK OF THE MONTH
Singer-songwriter Neko Case paints a vivid portrait of an extraordinary life-one forged through a poverty-stricken childhood, obsessive desire, bursts of comedy, and indispensable friendships-reflecting on the way art, music, and a deep connection to nature helped her become a beloved, Grammy-nominated artist.
In luminous, sharp-edged prose, Case shows readers what it's like to be left alone for hours and hours as a child, to take refuge in the woods around her home, and to channel the monotony and loneliness and joy that comes from music, camaraderie, and shared experience into art.
THE HARDER I FIGHT THE MORE I LOVE YOU is a rebellious meditation on identity and corruption, and a manifesto on how to make space for ourselves in this world, despite the obstacles we face.
