Matthew McConaughey\u2019s new book: Poems & Prayers<\/em><\/h2>\n\n

Matthew McConaughey, actor known for Interstellar<\/em>, True Detective<\/em> and The Wolf of Wall Street<\/em>, and author of the bestseller Greenlights, <\/em> returns to writing. His latest book, Poems & Prayers<\/em>, will be published on September 16 by Headline Publishing Group, simultaneously in the UK, US, Australia and Ireland. An audiobook version read by McConaughey himself will also be available on release day. <\/p>\n\n

Poetry and prayers about life, faith and humanity<\/h2>\n\n

Poems & Prayers<\/em> is a deeply personal collection of poetry and prayers in which McConaughey reflects on life, humanity and the fragile art of keeping hope alive. Drawing inspiration from proverbs and the Old Testament as well as his travels \u2013 from Australian bathtubs to shady hammocks south of the border and thousands of miles on the road in an Airstream \u2013 the book combines humour, vulnerability and a search for meaning. It\u2019s also a testament to his ongoing effort to be a better friend, husband, father and man. <\/p>\n\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to stop believing\u201d \u2013 says McConaughey<\/h2>\n\n
\n

I\u2019ve always relied on logic to make sense of myself and the world. A prescriptionist at heart, I\u2019ve always looked to reason to find the rhyme, the practical to get to the mystical, the choreography to find the dance, the proof to get to the truth, and reality to get to the dream. I\u2019ve been finding that tougher to do lately. It\u2019s more than hard to know what to believe in; it\u2019s hard to believe. But I don\u2019t want to quit believing, and I don\u2019t want to stop believing in\u2026 humanity, you, myself, our potential. <\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

The book<\/em> is full of moments of quiet contemplation, but also of nightmares you can\u2019t outrun, a courtroom battle with a stalker, the guilty gifts of stress, and the beauty of staying faithful to one\u2019s dreams. <\/p>\n\n

Greenlights <\/em>was a global bestseller<\/h2>\n\n

McConaughey\u2019s previous book, Greenlights, <\/em>, was published in 2020 and sold more than six million copies worldwide, becoming an international bestseller. Poems & Prayers<\/em> is the next step in McConaughey’s literary journey – this time even more personal and reflective.Follow our blog to stay up to date with book launches and tidbits from the world of literature.<\/p>\n\n
