'The Boss' gets ambitious about autism

A picture of what the Thunder Road chap book looks like

In 2003 author and Ambitious about Autism Vice President, Nick Hornby, wrote a book called 31 Songs, which contained an essay about his love for Thunder Road, the Bruce Springsteen classic.

In 2011 Lead Graffiti had an idea of reprinting Nick Hornby’s Thunder Road essay, along with the lyrics to Springsteen’s song, to raise money for Ambitious about Autism. Proposals were made and permission was granted by both writers. The text for the essay and lyrics have now been designed and printed in the form of a beautiful chap book in Los Angeles by synaesthesia press (pictured above).

There is now the very exciting opportunity to buy a limited number of signed copies of the book - some signed by both Hornby and Springsteen.  To find out more about this please visit the Lead Graffiti website.
