Jack White Collected Lyrics and Selected Writings Volume 1 with The White Stripes Complete Lyrics (2023), both published by Third Man Books, definitively collect White's extensive and acclaimed lyrical work. 'I wish I read more people who talked about Jack White as a writer of lyrics, or as a narrator of a very specific kind of interior.... Evil and optimism wrestle with each other, longing and a hunger for loneliness tussle in the same bed. Cynicism and desire, rage and tenderness. All of these things seamlessly stitch together and come alive on the page.' - Hanif Abdurraqib, author of A Little Devil In America.
