The new book by Jimmy Barnes, the award-winning author of the bestsellers Working Class Boy, Working Class Man, and Killing Time. From larger-than-life adventures to vivid and touching narratives of imagination, Highways and Byways is a collection of stories that takes readers on an exciting journey (with the occasional detour) through the noisy, vibrant life of one of the country's most successful and beloved artists.
With Jimmy's signature style, full of liveliness and flair, and rich in characteristic voice and spirit, Highways and Byways sees him sharing a scene from the 1970s in Texas with a dreamy cast of American musicians, flirting with disaster in a high-rise in Hawaii, discovering a life-changing cassette, unearthing shocking family secrets in Glasgow, meeting charismatic and less-than-likable stars, imaginary cops, and dubious vendors, while facing his own mortality - all while reflecting on the funniest effects of hospital medication.
Enchanting, personal, and moving, Highways and Byways is a collection that celebrates Jimmy's Scottish heritage, family, friends, music, and the adventure of a glorious life.
