“… something of interest for fans of Queen who don’t know anything about philosophy. There’s something of interest for fans of philosophy who don’t know anything about Queen,” Kemling said. “And if you happen to be in the Venn diagram, like I am, of both then it’s great. It should be a perfect book for you.”

According the website, a few of these insightful and provocative chapters include:

  • Origins of Queen’s unique style in prog rock, vulgarity, and lower versus higher Romanticism
  • Queen’s view of love, friendship, and erotic relationships
  • Three timeless Queen songs, “We Will Rock You,” “We Are the Champions,” and “Don’t Stop Me Now” and Socrates’s behavior in the Apology, to understand the “rocking” nature of philosophy

The RLC Bookstore will have copies on hand available to purchase. For more information, visit: https://carusbooks.com/product/queen/
