NEW YORK (AP) — Nobel laureate Kazuo Ishiguro's next book will be one for music lovers.
Alfred A. Knopf announced Thursday that Ishiguro's “The Summer We Crossed Europe in the Rain,” coming out March 5, is a collection of lyrics written for the million-selling jazz singer Stacey Kent.
The book combines older compositions dating back to 2007 and four “cinema” works for an upcoming project with Kent.
“The Summer We Crossed Europe in the Rain” also includes an introduction by Ishiguro, illustrations by the Italian artist Bianca Bagnarelli and a QR code that links to an album of Kent performing songs by the author.
