About this product

Product Information

As the man whose voice and style came to define pop music in the eighties and beyond, George Michael will forever be remembered as one of the all-time greats of British music. With records such as `Club Tropicana' and `Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go', Wham! rapidly became one of Britain's most successful groups, with George Michael finding himself a teen heartthrob the world over. After Wham!'s split in 1986, George went solo and took his career to even greater heights, launching classics including `Faith', `Freedom', and duets such as `Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me'. However, behind the success, he was still hiding his sexuality from the world and endured the tragedy of losing his boyfriend to AIDs in the early 1990s and, in later years, his drug use and arrests came to overshadow much of his career. George's sudden death on Christmas Day at the age of 53 has inspired a new appreciation of his talent and revealed the extent of his kindness and generosity for others, staging concerts for NHS nurses and giving money to strangers in need. This new biography, written by experienced author Emily Herbert, takes a close look at his career whilst also taking a look at his life off-stage, stands as a tribute to the life of this talented, generous and tragic pop icon.

An interesting & easy read
Written after George Michael passed away in December 2016 and published March 2017, this is an up to date biography of this talented song writer and musician. Although not the thickest of books in terms of number of pages (but then it does seem to have been written & got into publication pretty quickly following his death), it does nonetheless offer a fair insight into his personality and life. An interesting and easy read but one criticism is that the book could have contained more photographs showing from childhood and up until his passing away.

Nothing new
This is one of those books published after someone has died which is totally made up of interviews the person did throughout their life. I haven't finished it yet, but there's nothing new so far, no interviews with friends or families. It's all based on information already in the public domain.
