Van Morrison: Too Late to Stop Now is a bi … Van Morrison: Too Late to Stop Now is a biography of musician Van Morrison, written by Steve Turner. It was first published in 1993 in the United States by Penguin Group, and in Great Britain by Bloomsbury Publishing. Turner first met Van Morrison in 1985; he interviewed approximately 40 people that knew the subject in his research for the biography. Van Morrison did not think positively of the biography, and multiple newspapers reported he attempted to purchase all of the book's 25,000 copies. He sent a letter to the author asserting the 40 individuals interviewed for the book were not his friends, and accused Turner of "peddling distortions and inaccuracies about me personally". The biography takes a pictorial format, and includes many photographs of Van Morrison and scenes relating to his life, including close-up shots and contact prints. Turner discusses Van Morrison's youth in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and how early experiences shaped his perceptions. Flautist John Payne was interviewed for the book, and comments on his work with Van Morrison on the album Astral Weeks. Turner discusses Van Morrison's reluctance to be interviewed or engage with the public, and includes quotes from the musician about this desire for privacy. The author discusses Van Morrison's efforts to seek out creativity, and his exploration of spirituality. The book concludes with an assessment of Van Morrison's experiences with religion. The book was selected as "Editor's Choice" in the Sunday Age. Publishers Weekly's review of the book was critical of its "adulatory" tone, but called it a "necessity for fans", due to the inclusion of the discography. A review of the book for The Boston Globe commented "The value of the book is that it has at its heart the same subjects that most of Morrison's music has featured ... religion and spirituality." The Palm Beach Post noted that the biography provides "insights and updates as well as a solid background on Morrison's early life". The Sunday Times wrote that "the really interesting story here is told by the photographs". The Irish Times was critical of the book's text but wrote positively of the included photographs.te positively of the included photographs.
