Morrissey

de David Bret

This is the first full-length biography of the singer since he left his group The Smiths and since his status has ascended from cult pop star to transatlantic rock idol. Biographer David Bret unravels the complex nature of this multifaceted man. His views and actions are still covered and probed by a critical and sometimes hostile press. And yet, in spite of constant media scrutiny, Morrissey remains impressively aloof, mysterious and reclusive, while maintaining an unerring ability to communicate. Through in-depth interviews with Morrissey's friends and members of his entourage, Bret provides the first truly rounded portrait of this undisputed hero and poet of the human condition - possibly the most influential entertainer of his generation.
