About this title

Synopsis:

Illustrated with previously unseen photographs and drawing on over 300 hours of interviews with band members, producers, friends, former lovers and associates, this biography traces the artist's life from his humble Minneapolis roots through controversial stardom to his eventual rejection of the Prince persona. The text also analyses Prince's defiant celebrations of his sexuality and his complex affinity for the opposite sex, while presenting an informed critical appraisal of his work.
