Summary:
The award-winning master biographer chronicles the meteoric rise and enduring influence of the greatest female pop icon of the modern era who has never stopped experimenting, pushing boundaries that changed culture globally, and fiercely defending a person's right to love whomever-and be whoever -they wanted.
With her arrival on the music scene in the early 1980s, Madonna took the nation by storm with her liberated politics and breath-taking talent. Amid the scourge of AIDS she brought queer identities into the mainstream, and despite criticism never separated her music from her political activism. Gabriel traces Madonna's story, from Michigan roots to superstardom. She show that, by creating provocative, visionary music, videos, films and live performances, Madonna changed culture globally. -- adapted from jacket
