Krátky popis
'A whopping biography of the pop phenomenon and queen of
reinvention. Life is a mystery - hers oughtn't to be after reading
this.' THE TIMES, ' biggest books for autumn''A fascinating take on
one of music's greatest icons' BELFAST TELEGRAPHIn this exceptional
biography, Pulitzer Prize finalist Mary Gabriel chronicles the
meteoric rise and enduring influence of the greatest female pop
icon of the modern era: Madonna.'Daring to write a biography of a
woman with whom the entire world is on a first-name basis, Mary
Gabriel has created (astonishingly) a book neither gossip-driven
nor highly snarky... she reveals instead a Madonna both more true
and more unbelievably believable, a rock-and-roll
suffragette...Norman Mailer once said to Madonna, 'I've come to the
conclusion that you are a great artist.' Exquisitely detailed in
her storytelling, Gabriel is clearly in that camp, convincing us
that we all still vogue in the House of Madonna.'Brad Gooch, author
of City PoetWith her arrival on the music scene in the early 1980s,
Madonna generated nothing short of an explosion - as great as that
of Elvis or the Beatles - taking the nation by storm with her
liberated politics and breathtaking talent.But Madonna was more
than just a pop star. Everywhere, fans gravitated to her as an
emblem of a new age, one in which feminism could shed the
buttoned-down demeanour of the 1970s and feel relevant to a new
generation. Amid the scourge of AIDS, she brought queer identities
into the mainstream, fiercely defending a person's right to love
whomever - and be whoever - they wanted.Despite fierce criticism,
she never separated her music from her political activism. And as
an artist, she never stopped experimenting. Madonna existed to push
past boundaries by creating provocative, visionary music, videos,
films and live performances that changed culture globally.Deftly
tracing Madonna's story from her Michigan roots to her rise to
super-stardom, master biographer Mary Gabriel captures the dramatic
life and achievements of one of the greatest artists of our time.
