What Does This Button Do?: The No.1 Sunday Times Bestselling Autobiography

di Dickinson Bruce (Autore)

HarperCollins, 2017

‘I was spotty, wore an anorak, had biro-engraved flared blue jeans with “purple” and “Sabbath” written on the thighs, and rode an ear-splittingly uncool moped. Oh yes, and I wanted to be a drummer…’ Bruce Dickinson – Iron Maiden’s legendary front man – is one of the world’s most iconic singers and songwriters. But there are many strings to Bruce’s bow, of which larger-than-life lead vocalist is just one. He is also an airline captain, aviation entrepreneur, motivational speaker, beer brewer, novelist, radio presenter, film scriptwriter and an international fencer: truly one of the most unique and interesting men in the world. In What Does this Button Do? Bruce contemplates the rollercoaster of life. He recounts – in his uniquely anarchic voice – the explosive exploits of his eccentric British childhood, the meteoric rise of Maiden, summoning the powers of darkness, the philosophy of fencing, brutishly beautiful Boeings and firmly dismissing cancer like an uninvited guest. Bold, honest, intelligent and funny, this long-awaited memoir captures the life, heart and mind of a true rock icon, and is guaranteed to inspire curious souls and hard-core fans alike. This autobiography of the Sunday Times bestselling author is not just a journey through the history of heavy metal music, but a testament to the resilience and versatility of one of its best performing icons. With a tone of humour and candidness, Bruce Dickinson, delves into the various genres and styles that have influenced his life and career, making this a must-read for fans of biography, culture, and entertainment. For fans of Chris Ayres (I Am Ozzy), Joe Shooman (Bruce Dickinson), Neil Strauss (Don't Try This at Home), Mark Eglinton (Heavy Duty), and Martin Popoff (Anthem).
