In The Twelve Lives of Alfred Hitchcock Edward White explores the
Hitchcock phenomenon-what defines it, how it was invented, what it
reveals about the man at its core and how its legacy continues to
shape our cultural world. The book's twelve chapters illuminate
different aspects of Hitchcock's life and work: "The Boy Who
Couldn't Grow Up"; "The Murderer"; "The Auteur"; "The Womanizer";
"The Fat Man"; "The Dandy"; "The Family Man"; "The Voyeur"; "The
Entertainer"; "The Pioneer"; "The Londoner"; "The Man of God". Each
of these angles reveals something fundamental about the man he was
and the mythological creature he has become, presenting not just
the life Hitchcock lived, but also the various versions of himself
that he projected and those projected on his behalf. White's
portrayal illuminates a vital truth: Hitchcock was more than a
Hollywood titan; he was the definitive modern artist and his
significance reaches far beyond the confines of cinema.
