Hell Is Round the Corner by Tricky
'I was never interested in being the richest guy on the planet. My attitude was, I'm gonna turn music upside down. I'm gonna make a sound that nobody's heard before.'
My tears were relentlessly pricked by Tricky's memoir * Daily Telegraph *
Tricky is that rarity, a famous person genuinely appalled by fameThis book is an insight into a singular artist -- Julie Burchill * New Statesman *
Although bookended by tragedy, and shot through with violence and abuse, Hell Is Round the Corner proves an ultimately uplifting read, the testament of a fierce, funny and seemingly indomitable spirit * Observer *

Born in 1968, into the 'white ghetto' Knowle West area of Bristol, to an Anglo-Guyanese mother and Jamaican father, Adrian Thaws had what one might term a troubled start to life. Certain shocking events, particularly his mother's suicide, made a deep imprint on the boy who would grow up to become the artist and performer known as Tricky. Over the course of his career as a solo artist, he has released 13 studio albums, selling over 2 million copies worldwide. His debut album Maxinquaye (1995) was nominated for the Mercury Prize and sold over a million copies worldwide. He is admired internationally by some of the biggest names in music, including the late David Bowie. He currently lives and records in Berlin.
