Nick Corasaniti is a domestic correspondent covering national politics for the New York Times. He has covered four presidential cycles, along with countless congressional, gubernatorial and mayoral races in more than 15 years at the Times. He was once the Times's Jersey correspondent, tracking the politics, policy, people, trains, beaches, and eccentricities that give the Garden State its charm. He is a born and raised-and exceptionally proud-New Jerseyan, who splits his time between Asbury Park and Brooklyn.
“Reading Nick Corasaniti’s delightful book about the storied Asbury Park, New Jersey, club is like sitting at your favorite bar listening to the old regulars tell magnificent stories.” — Rolling Stone, Best Music Books of the Year ""This book . . . has charming bits of Springsteen-iana. . . . Like any rock ’n’ roll story, there are scenes of drugs and debauchery, but the main theme is of a community stubbornly determined to survive amid adversity . . . . Lively chatter and especially fun for Springsteen fans in particular and rock fans in general."" — Kirkus Reviews ""Corasaniti vividly portrays the 'The House That Springsteen Built' as a microcosm of the changes occurring across blue-collar America over the past half century. Springsteen devotees and fans of ’70s and ’80s rock will be captivated."" — Publishers Weekly ""Corasaniti, a political correspondent for the New York Times, has authored an oral history of the Stone Pony. . . . An engrossing, comprehensive chronicle of the venue’s ups and downs, told in the voices of the colorful characters closest to it."" — New Jersey Monthly ""This is a love letter to The Stone Pony and to the Asbury Park community as well as a stirring tale of rock 'n' roll survival."" — Booklist ""Ideal reading while relaxing on a Jersey Shore beach."" — Washington Independent Review of Books
