The music of Queen and powerhouse lead singer Freddie Mercury are
best experienced with the volume turned all the way up. Alfonso
Casas's Freddie Mercury delivers a sonorous homage to the
formidable singer and the turning points that produced a
game-changing body of music that continues to inspire fans around
the globe. First published in Spain and now available worldwide,
this luminous work covers Freddie's three "births": his birth as
Farrokh Bulsara in Zanzibar; his adoption of the last name of
Mercury and the launch of Queen with Brian May and Roger Taylor;
and the emergence of the lasting legend after Freddie's death at
the age of forty-five. Casas's evocative illustrations highlight
the key moments in the singer's transformation from child prodigy
to superstar, bringing to life the bold innovator who broke free of
his conventional upbringing. Chronicling events from Freddie's
marriage to Mary Austin and early fame in London's 1970s glam
scene, to the making of multiple megahits (including the six-minute
chart-topper "Bohemian Rhapsody"), to his final years in a lasting
relationship with Jim Hutton, Freddie Mercury is an exhilarating,
poignant portrait of a creative genius who lived life to the hilt.
