About the Book

The perfect gift for fans of Florence + the Machine, featuring lyrics, never-before-seen poetry, and scrapbook entries from the award-winning singer

‘An alchemy of memoir and imagination’ Waterstones Newsletter

Songs can be incredibly prophetic, like subconscious warnings or messages to myself, but I often don't know what I'm trying to say till years later. Or a prediction comes true and I couldn't do anything to stop it, so it seems like a kind of useless magic.

Florence Welch needs no introduction.

As the lead vocalist of the award-winning band Florence + The Machine, who burst onto the scene with their cult-classic debut album Lungs, she has won the hearts of fans across the globe with her ethereal voice and theatrical stage presence and, more recently, for her collaboration with Taylor Swift on Florida!.

Now, ahead of the release of the band’s new album, Everybody Scream, explore the iconic voice of their acclaimed singer with this stunning collection of her lyrics, poems and scrapbook entries.

Featuring beautiful illustrations and journal-style intimacy, Useless Magic is the must-have book for any Florence + The Machine fan.

About the Author :
Since forming Florence + The Machine in 2007, Florence Welch has written three albums, Lungs, Ceremonials and How Big How Blue How Beautiful, all of which have been chart toppers all over the world, and she has been nominated for and has won numerous international awards.

Review :
Her first book of poetry is an elegant collaged scrapbook A treasure . . . beautiful. Generous in its honesty, by the end you feel as though you have climbed into the colourful, and sometimes tortured, world of a passionate artist Pop's high priestess bares her soul in this candid collection of poems and lyrics . . . offering a chance to appreciate on the bare stage of the blank page the fineness of her words. And like fellow poet-musician Nick Cave, Welch has found a way for the song and the voice of the rabbit-hearted girl to coexist A varied, visually arresting tome, it brings together poems, lyrics, sketches and notes from Welch's personal and professional life, making the reader feel as though they're peeking into a private journal An alchemy of memoir and imagination
