But Beautiful is a book about jazz and jazz musicians by Geoff Dyer. First published in 1991, it is the first of Dyer's so-called genre-defying works. Like Michael Ondaatje's Coming Through Slaughter, But Beautiful takes a fictionalised look at jazz.

But Beautiful - Kelwyn Hutcheon, The Felix Roach Acoustic Jazz Ensemble. The Music Geoff Dyer discusses in his great book But Beautiful. It covers all songs mentioned in the text plus one album for every musician except for Lester Young who is rather represented in single recordings.
