'A remarkable novel, elegant, wise, and beautifully constructed.' Roddy Doyle
Tommy Mays, Titan Records' biggest act, is verging on a mid-life crisis; learning the hard way that a life of fame and fortune comes at a price. But things are looking up for his support band, The Burn, which could be a career-changer for Theo, Titan's young A&R executive. Meanwhile, secretary Cynthia has her eyes on Titan's latest rising star, singer-songwriter Lenore Lamont. But with a billboard in Times Square, is Lenore starting to feel the pressure?
Set in the sleek offices, high-tech recording studios and hip downtown clubs of New York, The Words of Every Song depicts the realities of making it in an industry where glamour and fame can often conceal the harsh realities for those hoping to hit the big-time.

When words meet music. This book explores beautifully the magic and power of music and how it connects people. The Words of Every Song explores the lives of different people who have never met but are all connected through music and don't even know it. Some of them crossed one another briefly others looked up to their idols. Music is their job, live safer, their passion. It is interesting to see how a passion can put you on a path that leads you to your faith. While reading, I had the movie "August Rush" in mind, which follows a similar plot. I highly recommend this book to anyone who either loves music or to those who want to remember the good and the bad times in which music has been their companion.
