While \u003ci\u003eHorses \u003c\/i\u003epays homage to the record's origins in the nascent New York punk scene, the book's core lies in a detailed analysis of Patti Smith's lyrics and includes discussions of lyrical preoccupations: love, sex, gender, death, dreams, god, metamorphosis, intoxication, apocalypse and transcendence. Philip shaw demonstrates how \u003ci\u003eHorses \u003c\/i\u003etransformed the possibilities of both poetry and rock music; and how it achieved nothing less than a complete and systematic derangement of the senses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhilip Shaw is a Reader in the Department of English at the University of Leicester.
