Gary Numan is one of Britain’s most important and respected musical artists. He has been lauded by everyone from Prince through the Foo Fighters and Nine Inch Nails to Lady Gaga. This book is Numan’s long-awaited memoir; one that charts his two lives. The first: from growing up in west London, where he was expelled from school and beaten up daily for looking different, before discovering his first synthesiser and conquering the music world in rapid time; to the extravagance, the undiagnosed Asperger’s and the slow decline of a career that faded into near obscurity. The second: a twenty-plus year renaissance, catalysed by the date with a super-fan, which has allowed Gary to rediscover his creativity, produce some of his best music and become the true Godfather of electro-pop. This is the story of one man, several dozen synthesisers, multiple issues and two desperately different lives.
