Steven Patrick Morrissey was born in Manchester on May 22nd 1959. Singer-songwriter and co-founder of the Smiths (1982-1987), Morrissey has been a solo artist for twenty-six years, during which time he has had three number 1 albums in England in three different decades. Achieving eleven Top 10 albums (plus nine with the Smiths), his songs have been recorded by David Bowie, Nancy Sinatra, Marianne Faithfull, Chrissie Hynde, Thelma Houston, My Chemical Romance and Christy Moore, amongst others.

An animal protectionist, in 2006 Morrissey was voted the second greatest living British icon by viewers of the BBC, losing out to Sir David Attenborough. In 2007 Morrissey was voted the greatest northern male, past or present, in a nationwide newspaper poll. In 2012, Morrissey was awarded the Keys to the City of Tel-Aviv. It has been said 'Most pop stars have to be dead before they reach the iconic status that Morrissey has reached in his lifetime.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"Five stars. With typical pretension, Morrissey's first book has been published as a Penguin Classic. It justifies such presentation with a beautifully measured prose style that combines a lilting, poetic turn of phrase and acute quality of observation, revelling in a kind of morbid glee at life's injustice with arch, understated humour ... It is recognisably the voice of the most distinctive British pop lyricist of his era." (Neil McCormack, Daily Telegraph)
"The Best Music Biog Ever ... In the world of rock autobiographies, Morrissey's is nigh-on perfect." (Ben Hewitt, NME)
"A brilliant and timely book ... What is so refreshing about Morrissey's Autobiography is its very messiness, its deliriously florid, overblown prose style, its unwillingness to kowtow to a culture of literary formula and commercial pigeon-holing ... Autobiography is a true baggy monster, a book in which a distinctive prose style is allowed to develop ... A rococo triumph ... Overwhelmingly this is a book to be thankful for ... In the ways that matter, Autobiography reads like a work of genuine literary class" (Alex Niven)

What made the experience of listening to Autobiography the most enjoyable?

I enjoyed the narration by Morrisey himself very much. I loved the very relaxed way in which he tells his story.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Well - himself :-)

What does David Morrissey bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

The feel of the places that he describes in the book. Telling us about the ups and downs of his life would not come through in the same way in the paperback version.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I listened to this book over several nights.

Any additional comments?

I find it amazing that DM has kept up his good spirits despite all the troubles he has endured. I love the way he speaks up for animal rights. That is another plus for me as I did not realize beforehand that he is a plant eater :-)

A good listen

From Stretford, and being a similar age to Morrissey, and even living next door but two to his aunt, uncle and cousin, Fiona, I feel a connection. This book is well written (I followed both the printed and audio versions) and it was well narrated. I felt a closeness throughout the read/listen and enjoyed my ‘journey’ with the author which sadly only lasted a week. Morrissey, as well as being a great musician/writer should seriously consider being an author - he would be great!

A great book!
