In her long-awaited debut, Debbie Gibson reflects on the lessons she learned in her years as a young pop pioneer and on her hard-earned journey to embrace her authentic self, allowing her to lead the healthy, engaged—and electric!—life she does today. Debbie Gibson was just sixteen when she released her multi-platinum debut album Out of the Blue and recorded “Foolish Beat” in 1988, making her the youngest person to ever write, produce, and perform a Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper. A child actress who became the original pop princess, Debbie had full creative control over her music and, when that no longer aligned with a transitioning arts scene, she went on to star in Broadway’s Les Misérables, Beauty and the Beast, and Cabaret, as well as in the London production of Grease. Yet, for all the accolades and achievements, her success came at a high price. Anxiety, depression, financial struggles, illness—Debbie writes candidly about these and other challenges, and how she ultimately redesigned her life to overcome them. This is the story of her not only surviving, but thriving: returning to her musical roots, releasing new albums, going back out on tour, and living the best version of her authentic self to remain…Eternally Electric!

On the night of 19/20 September 1944, a force of 227 Avro Lancasters and ten de Havilland Mosquitoes was despatched to attack the German towns of Mönchengladbach and Rheydt. The Master Bomber for the raid was none other than Wing Commander Guy Penrose Gibson VC, DSO & Bar, DFC & Bar. Along with his navigator, Squadron Leader James Warwick DFC, Gibson was flying Mosquito KB627 of 627 Squadron from RAF Coningsby, where he was serving as the Base Operations Officer. By this stage of the Second World War, Gibson was arguably one of the most famous of all the Allied aviators. Aged just 26, few in the country, if not across the Allied world as a whole, would not have heard his name or seen a picture of his face. It was his leadership of the daring Dambusters Raid, Operation Chastise, in May 1944 that firmly propelled him into the public’s eye – and ultimately led to his award of the Victoria Cross. Gibson need not have been flying that fateful night. Following his involvement in the attack on the Ruhr dams, and a subsequent goodwill lecture tour of the United States, Gibson, a veteran of 170 or more operational sorties, would have been entitled to a less front-line role. Churchill, for example, had hoped that Gibson would stand for election as a Member of Parliament. Gibson, however, was soon agitating a return to flying duties – resulting in his participation in the attack on Mönchengladbach and Rheydt. The raid was a success. Throughout the operation, Gibson’s instructions over the target were easily heard and gave no hint of impending trouble. It was during the return leg that something went wrong. At around 22.30 hours on the 19th, Gibson’s Mosquito slammed into the ground at Steenbergen in the Netherlands; both men on board were killed. Witnesses on the ground reported hearing an aircraft flying low, observing that its cockpit was illuminated, and then, seconds later, the violent sight and sounds of its final moments. The cause of the crash has been the subject of intense speculation ever since. Had Gibson and Warwick fallen to the guns of a German night fighter, or, tragically, ‘friendly fire’ from an Allied bomber? Was it mechanical failure or possibly pilot error that had led to the disaster?Like the disappearance of Glenn Miller or Rudolf Hess’ flight to Britain, the death of Guy Gibson VC, one of Britain’s greatest wartime heroes, is among the Second World War’s most intriguing mysteries. How could one of the RAF’s most experienced pilots have simply fallen from the sky over Occupied Europe without explanation. In The Death of Guy Gibson the author sets out answer that very question.

Fascinující autobiografie Debbie Harry, zpěvačky světoznámé americké hudební skupiny BLONDIE, která řádila na světových pódiích koncem sedmdesátých a osmdesátých let. Bestseller americké knižní scény závěru roku 2019. Debbie Harry je zpěvačka, herečka, aktivistka a ikonická tvář New York City. Skupina Blondie, ve které působila jako "frontwoman", stvořila zcela nový zvuk, který spojoval rock, punk, disko, reggae a hip hop, a dala tak světu hity, které patří k nejoblíbenějším songům všech dob. Byla múzou a spolupracovnicí nejodvážnějších umělců uplynulých čtyř dekád. Její vliv na americkou kulturu je nepopsatelný - stejně nepopsatelný jako její soukromí a myšlenky, které si vždy pečlivě střežila - až doposud! Tváří v tvář přináší upřímnou a otevřenou zpověď této neuvěřitelné ženy, unikátní fotografický materiál, který nebyl nikdy zveřejněn, bezpočet originálních ilustrací včetně těch od fanoušků, a přesahuje tak dalece rámec běžných memoárů: je to opravdu "výživný" a barvitý portrét. Kniha nás přenese do centra New Yorku sedmdesátých let dvacátého století tak živě, že cítíme všechna ta úskalí, špínu i slávu doby, kdy Blondie hráli po boku Ramones, Television, Talking Heads, Iggyho Popa a Davida Bowieho, doslova na dotek. Sledujeme cestu Debbie ke slávě a komerčnímu úspěchu, ale i k závislosti na heroinu, těžkým časům, kdy její partner Chris Stein málem zemřel, přes zdrcující bankrot a rozchod Blondie, její hereckou kariéru ve více než třiceti filmech a oslnivou sólovou dráhu zpěvačky až po triumfální návrat její staré kapely. Jsme také svědky Debbiina neúnavného boje za životní prostředí a práva homosexuálních menšin. Tváří v tvář je panoramatický příběh ženy, která šla vlastní, nevyšlapanou cestou a stvořila zcela nové standardy pro celou generaci umělců, kteří následovali v jejích stopách. Jsou to velmi dynamické memoáry - dynamické jako osoba, která je vypráví. Debbie Harry prodala s Blondie celosvětově 50 milionů alb a byla roku 2006 uvedena do Rokenrolové síně slávy. Debbie stále vystupuje, nahrává, skládá. A stále skvěle - album "Pollinator" bylo časopisem Rolling Stone zvoleno za jedno z nejlepších 20 alb roku 2017.

Travelling widely, Ralph Gibson works primarily in inspired series, associated image reveries in both monochrome and colour, whose titles―The Somnambulist, Déjà-Vu, Days at Sea, and Chiaroscuro―underline the particular poetic sensibility that informs his work. Starting out in 1960 with Dorothea Lange, he made his way to New York in 1967 and was soon considered in the same light as the likes of Larry Clark and Diane Arbus. The photographs and series can of course speak for themselves. But for Gibson there is a philosophy at play behind the image, and in the included short texts he proposes his thesis. Nudes, portraits, still lives, narratives―loyal to his Leica, Gibson ranges between genres and creates new categories of vision. He gets closer to things and meditates on them in a way that only the silence of the image can attempt.Produced in close collaboration with the artist, this book offers the fruit of more than six decades of image-making. From Gibson’s first photographs in San Francisco, Hollywood, and New York in the 1960s right up to the present day, this is the most comprehensive collection of this highly acclaimed photographer.

The book that defined the cyberpunk movement, inspiring everything from The Matrix to Cyberpunk 2077.The sky above the port was the colour of television, tuned to a dead channel.William Gibson revolutionised science fiction in his 1984 debut Neuromancer. The writer who gave us the matrix and coined the term ''cyberspace'' produced a first novel that won the Hugo, Nebula and Philip K. Dick Awards, and lit the fuse on the Cyberpunk movement. More than three decades later, Gibson''s text is as stylish as ever, his noir narrative still glitters like chrome in the shadows and his depictions of the rise and abuse of corporate power look more prescient every day. Part thriller, part warning, Neuromancer is a timeless classic of modern SF and one of the 20th century''s most potent and compelling visions of the future. His later work, The Peripheral, has been adapted into a series by Amazon Prime, starring Chloë Grace Moretz. Readers are hooked on Neuromancer:''Wow. This is a wild ride. If you liked Philip K. Dick''s writing . . . if you liked Bladerunner, if you liked The Matrix . . . you will love Neuromancer'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐''Like nothing I have read before . . . Gibson''s writing is poetry, not jargon . . . [it''s] slick and jagged like a serrated knife . . . Yeah I am a big, big fan . . . a unique, important and truly amazing reading experience'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐''Basically a futuristic crime caper. The main character is Case, a burnt-out hacker, a cyberthief . . . Challenging? Yes. But it''s electrifying once you get it . . . Neuromancer is in me like a teabag, flavouring my life, and I can''t imagine what it would be like if I hadn''t pressed on'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐''For me it was a sci fi thriller, two of my favourite genres rolled into one. I was grabbed immediately by the characters of Cole and Molly - especially Molly with her attitude, her mirror eyes and the blades under her fingernails . . . This is a very visual book and it was easy to start choosing who would play the roles in a movie'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Internationally beloved opera star Deborah Voigt recounts her harrowing and ultimately successful private battles to overcome the addictions and self-destructive tendencies that nearly destroyed her life.Call Me Debbie is one of the most electrifying performances of Deborah Voigt’s life. The brilliantly gifted opera soprano takes us behind the velvet curtains to tell her compelling story—a tale of success, addiction, music, and faith as dramatic as any role she has performed. For the first time, she talks about the events that led to her dangerous gastric bypass surgery in 2004 and its shocking aftermath: her substantial weight loss coupled with the “cross addiction” that led to severe alcoholism, frightening all-night blackouts, and suicide attempts. Ultimately, Voigt emerged from the darkness to achieve complete sobriety, thanks to a twelve-step program and a recommitment to her Christian faith.Colored by hilarious anecdotes and juicy gossip that illuminate what really goes on backstage, Voigt paints diverting portraits of the artists with whom she’s worked, her most memorable moments onstage, and her secrets to great singing. She also offers fascinating insight into the roles she’s played and the characters she loves, including Strauss’s Ariadne and Salome, Puccini’s Minnie, and Wagner’s Sieglinde, Isolde, and Brünnhilde, sharing her intense preparation for playing them.Filled with eight pages of color photos, Call Me Debbie is an inspirational story that offers a unique look into the life of a modern artist and a remarkable woman.

Not long after coming together, they toured the world, released #1 records, and collaborated with the biggest artists of the day. They seemed unstoppable-until tensions within the band, artistic differences, and the pressures of sudden celebrity tore them apart less than a decade later.ETERNAL FLAME is the story of those eight years: of a diverse and vibrant Los Angeles music scene, unfettered work ethics and self-belief, the dawn of MTV, the unpredictable consequences of fame, life as a touring band, and their rapid rise to global domination--then imploding at the height of success. But it''s also a story of the very real challenges faced by women attempting to follow their artistic dreams in a media and music industry ecosystem which seemed set up for their failure from the start.With unprecedented access to founding members Debbi Peterson, Susanna Hoffs, and Vicki Peterson, ETERNAL FLAME is the first authorized biography of this iconic group, featuring exclusive stories, input, and interviews from the pioneering band members themselves as well as those that knew them best. From playing the club circuit in 1980s'' LA to bunking with Sting during a PR trip to the UK to topping the Billboard charts, to interludes with Prince and appearances on the definitive MTV, ETERNAL FLAME traces the band''s rise to superstardom, taking readers behind-the-scenes and sharing with them never-before-shared anecdotes and personal ephemera.As Debbi herself notes, "I think it''s about time that our true story was told. People only see certain aspects of the Bangles, especially as the media has twisted the past and we have been misrepresented for a long time. Plus, certainly in the eighties, we were women making it in a man''s world. I think that needs to be celebrated." Dynamic, daring, and deliciously entertaining from start to finish, ETERNAL FLAME is a tribute to one of the greatest pop bands of the 20th century-and a long-overdue corrective that restores The Bangles to their rightful place in music history as feminist trailblazers.
