Publisher's Synopsis
It's hard for any family to lose a son, a brother. But for Tina Hutchence and Patricia Glassop, there was little chance for private grief: the news of Michael's shocking death in a Sydney hotel room was almost instantly worldwide news. Since that November day in 1997 they have read tales spun by journalists, lovers and business associates - about the notorious highs and lows of Michael the superstar, and as the doting but unconventional father of Tiger Lily - people who knew Michael for only a fraction of his 37 years, if at all. Now they feel they owe it to Michael to set the record straight.This intimate biography introduces us to the talented child with a complicated home life, the gifted teen who gravitated into music forming INXS, the young adult whose glamorous girlfriends - including Kylie Minogue, Helena Christensen and Paula Yates - confided in his mother and sister. Many of Michael's oldest friends and associates have spoken for the first time for this book.
