Faber unveils paperback of Kate Bush’s lyrics with invisible ink messages inside some copies 

Faber has acquired paperback rights to Kate Bush’s selected lyrics, How to Be Invisible, with some copies featuring a message written in invisible ink by the musician.

World English-language paperback rights were acquired by Dan Papps, deputy director of music, directly from the author. The hardcover of How to Be Invisible was published by Faber & Faber in 2018.

The new paperback edition will feature a new introduction by Bush and illustrations by Jim Kay. It will be published on 6th April for £10.99.

There will be a very limited number of signed copies of the edition available from Waterstones, Rough Trade and independent book and record shops in the UK.

Bush has written a message in invisible ink in a small number of the signed copies, which will be distributed at random: the notes will be revealed to the recipients when they place the signature page under ultraviolet light.
