The Hope That House Built

The Hope That House Built is the title of a Future of the Left song whose words and music are represented by a permitted excerpt in the book. Its connection to the novel is documented in the acknowledgments and copyright notices, which link the song to the book’s epigraph material and credit the band for permission to reprint it.

Connection to the Book

In the acknowledgments, the author thanks Future of the Left and Andrew Falkous for their friendship and for providing another epigraph. The copyright notice separately identifies an excerpt from The Hope That House Built as words and music by Future of the Left, reprinted with permission. Together, these notes associate the song with the book’s epigraphs without specifying the excerpt’s placement in the text.

Publication Credit

The reprint acknowledgment gives the song’s copyright year as 2009 and credits Future of the Left for both words and music. The notice records the excerpt’s authorized use; the evidence does not identify its length or reproduce its lyrics.
