There are millions of people in the world who have never heard of Glenn Gould, especially in India and Ireland - two countries that I have spent most of my life in. Teenagers and young people with no musical knowledge may also never have heard of Gould - I remember when I first started doing lecture-recitals about music Gould was fond of, I presumed people already knew much about his life and musical legacy. Until I found out that the name "Glenn Gould" was foreign to thousands of people. So if you've stumbled upon this site via my Animal Talkies blog (as many people write to say they have) and have discovered Gould's recordings, writings and legacy as a result - here's a list of books and albums that you might enjoy, if you want to find out more about the creative genius who has inspired me to never settle for mediocrity and the mundane. When I get a chance, I'll write my thoughts on each of these books and recordings, but for now - simply enjoy them.
