Straight by Boy George
In the 13 years since the conclusion of the first part of his memoirs, Take It Like A Man, Boy George has reinvented himself. As that story closed, George was coming to terms with the fall-out from his drug addiction, the failure of his relationship with Jon Moss and the collapse of Culture Club. For lesser men this would have been the end but for George it became the start of a period of startling personal and creative reinvention. Told with George's trademark biting wit, brutal honesty and sparkling insight, this new book will bring his remarkable story up to date and follow his quest for personal happiness and creative success. Take It Like A Man saw George's struggle against drugs come to dominate his rapid rise to fame; this book will be an even more fascinating insight into what makes this superstar tick, tracing the momentous twists and turns of his personal and artistic life over the last decade-and-a-half to include his role as a world-class DJ spearheading the dance music revolution in clubs all over the world, his cutting-edge record label, and his role as the driving force behind and star of the theatrical sensation, Taboo, which recently opened on Broadway. This book will not just be a riveting companion volume to the bestselling Take It Like a Man, but a truly fascinating book in its own right.
Since the break up of Culture Club, Boy George has become a world-class DJ, a notable solo singer-songwriter, and set up his own independent record label, More Protein. He writes a controversial newspaper column in the Sunday Express and hosted his own TV chat show for BBC Choice in 2001/2002. He has starred in Taboo in the West End, and is preparing for the show's opening on Broadway in November.
