Books
Every holiday season portends a crop of autobiographies, tell-alls and deep histories from a variety of celebrities and authors. When we’re lucky, they’re about our favorite musicians. This year, we have not one but two extraordinary autobiographies from rock’s biggest living legends—Pete Townshend and Neil Young. We also recommend the stellar writer Michael Chabon’s latest novel, Telegraph Avenue —set partially in a Bay Area record shop and delivering a bundle of interrelated, middle-class tales of struggle and existence. Telegraph Avenue, $27.99; Who I Am, $32.50; Waging Heavy Peace, $30.
