Boy George writes memoir about music, fame, sexuality, addiction and the culture around the New Romantic scene. Take It Like a Man recounts his childhood, the rise of Culture Club and the turbulence surrounding sudden celebrity, while Straight continues with later relationships, legal problems, addiction and recovery. His voice is frank, sharp and frequently comic, with fashion, club culture and public image treated as central parts of the story rather than decorative background. The books suit readers of music memoir, LGBTQ+ autobiography, 1980s pop culture and accounts of celebrity shaped by style and self-invention. Read more Less
