Morrissey announced earlier this year that he was half-way through writing his debut novel.
Well, it seems as though the singer wasn't bluffing. In a new move Morrissey has confirmed the publication of new tome List Of The Lost, with the novel set to be released at the end of September.
The full announcement – via True To You – is as follows:
Morrissey's first novel, List of the Lost, will be published by Penguin Books (UK) at the end of September. The book will be issued in softcover/paperback as a New Fiction title, and comes almost two years after Morrissey's very successful Autobiography publication of October 2013. Penguin Books will confirm an on sale date within this coming week. List of the Lost will be available in the UK, Ireland, Australia, India, New Zealand and South Africa.
