L'Histoire secrète de Kate Bush

In 1983, Fred Vermorel slipped into the shoes of his biggest fan to carry out an investigation in a totally new form in the history of literature devoted to music. The author retraces the footsteps of his ancestors, interviews those closest to him and immerses himself to the point of madness in the world of Kate Bush. The result is a mystical, often baroque text, a vertiginous plunge into the singer's music that sheds rare light on the obsessive power that governs the relationship between fans and pop stars. The world's best-selling book about the singer, The Secret History of Kate Bush (and the Strange Art of Pop) was a controversial bestseller, before gaining cult status over the years. Unpublished in French and out of print for two decades in the UK, it has now been supplemented by the author's personal archives. A masterpiece of pop music literature and underground English culture.
