Set Lusting Bruce: The Springsteen Podcast

Patrizia de Rossi is an Italian music journalist based in Rome. In 1987, she analysed and explored Bruce Springsteen’s lyrics through the big themes of North American literature with her thesis “The poetry of Bruce Springsteen”. Since then, her writings have included the books “She’s the one” in which she discusses the evolution of women’s figures in Springsteen’s songs, and “Last Man Standing”, where she portrays him as the last American hero of the ever-changing idea of the American dream. In a wonderful conversation, she and I explored her Springsteen fandom and her writing. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
