The last of John Burnside's three memoirs, I Put a Spell on You is an enthralling ode to love and wonder in all its forms
With a new introduction by Seán Hewitt
'A master of language' Hilary Mantel
The first time he was played 'I Put a Spell on You', John Burnside thought he had never heard a more beautiful song - it was an enchantment, a fascination that would turn to obsession. Implicit in the song were all the ambiguities that intrigued him - love, possession, and danger.
In this exquisite and haunting book, John Burnside evokes his coming of age from the industrial misery of Cowdenbeath and Corby to the new world of Cambridge, and follows his drifting thoughts and memories along the way: from uncanny encounters with 'lost girls' to digressions on voodoo, acid, and insomnia, alongside a cast that includes Kafka, Narcissus, Diane Arbus and Screamin' Jay Hawkins.
The last of John Burnside's three memoirs, I Put a Spell on You is a memoir of romance - of lost love and the love of being lost - darkened by threat, illuminated by glamour.
'Astonishing... Not just brilliant, but essential reading' Independent
'Exact and enthralling' Tessa Hadley
