- Summary
- "What happens when you ask some of the most accomplished songwriters working today to apply their talents to prose? The result is Songs Without Rhyme, a collection of short works by songwriters. The contributors come from a variety of musical genres, which is reflected in the diversity of the prose within the collection. Each piece is paired with the song lyric that inspired it, offering a rare glimpse into the artist's creative process.
- From futuristic fiction to autobiographical nonfiction, the stories are as unique as their authors, and deeply compelling in their originality and imagination."--BOOK JACKET.
