Close to three decades removed from her debut album, 1997’s The Virginian , Neko Case will tell her life story in a new memoir, out Jan. 28. The book, The Harder I Fight, the More I Love You — which takes its moniker from the second half of Case’s celebrated, prolixly titled 2013 album — will look at how she grew up feeling invisible, “raised by two dogs and a space heater,” in Washington state’s “slummy one-horse towns” to become a critically acclaimed alt-country and indie-rock artist as a member of the New Pornographers.
The book’s publisher, Grand Central Publishing, describes it as “a rebellious meditation on identity and corruption, and a manifesto on how to make space for ourselves in this world, despite the obstacles we face.” “I hope my story will cast a spell of love, invite everyone inside, and smash the illusion that we have no connection to each other,” Case said in a statement.
