    • V roce 2009 vystoupil Bruce Springsteen se svou kapelou E Street Band v poločasovém programu Super Bowlu, což ho inspirovalo k napsání autobiografie. Tento proces trval sedm let a jeho styl se vyznačuje upřímností, osobitým humorem a originalitou, které jsou charakteristické pro jeho hudbu. Springsteen popisuje své dětství v katolickém prostředí Freehold v New Jersey, kde zažil první vystoupení Elvise Presleyho. Vypráví o svém rozhodnutí stát se muzikantem a vzpomíná na úspěchy v barových kapelách v Asbury Parku a na vznik E Street Bandu. S odzbrojující upřímností sdílí osobní zážitky a trampoty, které inspirovaly jeho nejslavnější písně, včetně legendární skladby Born to Run. Kniha je určena všem fanouškům Springsteenovy hudby, ale není to obyčejné hudební memoáry. Je to příběh pro dělníky i snílky, rodiče i děti, milující i osamělé, pro umělce i blázny – pro všechny, kteří touží po očistné koupeli v rockové lázni. Málokterá hudební hvězda dokáže vyprávět tak upřímně a naléhavě. V autobiografii se prolíná lyrická nota s moudrostí člověka, který má za sebou bohatý život a dokáže o něm zajímavě přemýšlet.
