Told in his inimitable style, \u0026lt;i\u0026gt;Karma \u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;tells the story of the charismatic frontman - the drama, the music, his journey of addiction and recovery, surviving prison, meeting legends like David Bowie, Prince and Madonna, and the highs and lows of a life lived in the spotlight and in the headlines.\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;This is the explosive and searingly honest account of Boy George's life as a child growing up in sixties London, coming out to his Irish Catholic family and exploring his sexuality through the hedonism of the seventies - the glam rock and punk rock revolution that birthed Culture Club - and the heydays of the nineties, to finally embracing the man and artist that he is today. With all the humour, honesty, sarcasm (and hats!) that you'd expect, \u0026lt;i\u0026gt;Karma\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt; gives us a unique insight into Boy George's incredible story and the true evolution of a music icon.\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;br\u0026gt;\u0026lt;i\u0026gt;'Culture Club is always going to be one of those lovers I go back to. I've railed against it and that Boy George character I created. For years I convinced myself I was a creature of habit, unchangeable, immovable. But eventually you have to look in the mirror. Not looking for spots, looking for something deeper. Why the hell am I here? I would say life is the point of life.'\u0026lt;\/i\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57305816039806,"sku":"NW9781785120350","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781785120350.jpg?v=1778518452","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-eu\/products\/karma-2","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
