George Michael reveals all to HarperCollins - New Biography
Pop legend
George Michael has signed with HarperCollins to write his
autobiography in what the publisher said was one of the biggest
book deals ever concluded in UK publishing. The deal for world
rights was agreed by Belinda Budge, m.d. and publisher of Harper
NonFiction UK, with Michael's manager Andy Stephens and his book
agency, Grace.
The
autobiography, which HC described as "access all areas",
covering both Michael's personal and professional life, will be
published in autumn 2009 by HC in the US, UK, Canada, Australia,
New Zealand and India.
Manager Andy
Stephens said: "George has promised HarperCollins a no-holds
barred biography, and it’s certain to be just that. People
aren’t stupid, they're beginning to notice that the truth is
more interesting than the stories the press come up with!"
Budge added:
"This is an incredibly exciting publishing event. George is
one of the best known and best loved pop singers in the world,
with an extraordinary story to tell. I am particularly thrilled by
this deal, as I have long been a fan of George's. Most importantly,
this really will be a truly authentic book— and an exceptional
one, as he’s going to be writing it entirely himself."
