The newest, most updated book on Prince available today—now
updated with information about the afterlife of his work following
his untimely death. Famously reticent and perennially
controversial, Prince was one of the few music superstars who
remained, largely, an enigma—even up to his premature death on
April 21, 2016. A fixture of the pop canon, Prince is widely held
to be the greatest musician of his generation and will undoubtedly
remain an inspiring and singular influence throughout our culture.
This revised and updated second edition of this meticulously
researched biography is the most comprehensive work on Prince yet
published. Unlike other Prince books, this one eschews speculation
into the artist's highly guarded private life and instead focuses
deep and sustained attention exactly where it should be: on his
work. Acclaimed British novelist and critic Matt Thorne draws on
years of research and dozens of interviews with Prince's intimate
associates (many of whom have never spoken on record before) to
examine every phase of the musician's 35-year career, including
nearly every song—released and unreleased—that Prince has
recorded. Originally released in the UK in 2012, this revised and
updated second US edition of Prince includes updated content
regarding work released and made available after the artist’s
death.. This astonishingly rich, almost encyclopedic biography is a
must-have for any serious fan of Prince.
