ABOUT THE BOOK:

Swifties are famous for their intense study of Taylor Swift's songs. From hidden meanings to Easter eggs, fans are eager to share, trade, and collect theories about her lyrics and what inspired them. English professor Rachel Feder, author of The Darcy Myth: Jane Austen, Literary Heartthrobs, and the Monsters They Taught Us to Love-called "wildly entertaining" by the Washington Post-has teamed up with musical theater performer Tiffany Tatreau to write Taylor Swift by the Book: The Literature Behind the Lyrics, from Fairy Tales to Tortured Poets.

Together, Rachel and Tiffany unpack the literature that inspired Swift's song lyrics across her entire catalog, from her debut album to The Tortured Poets Department. Swift fans will get a peek into the authors, books, plays, and poems that influenced the lyrics to their favorite songs, learning:

• What "New Romantics" has to do with the old Romantics
• About the Gothic monsters haunting Midnights
• How to spot Taylor's many Great Gatsby references
• What Taylor Swift and Emily Dickinson have in common
• And much more!

The perfect gift for Swifties and literature geeks alike, Taylor Swift by the Book captures the enthusiasm of Swift's fandom and combines it with a beautifully illustrated, fun, and accessible guide to the literary works that have inspired this global superstar.
