Amy Amy Amy

More about the book

Author Nick Johnstone unravels the life and career of one of Britain's most brilliant and troubled stars. Amy Amy Amy tracks Winehouse's erratic journey to fame from her North London Jewish family home, detailing her meteoric rise to stardom and the two albums that catapulted her to the top. Her well-publicised problems with alcohol and drugs, anorexia, bulimia and suspected self-harm keep her in the headlines, and threaten to obscure her undiminished singing talent. Amy Amy Amy redresses the imbalance, giving full measure to Winehouse's talent while offering an honest account of her multiple personal crises. This updated edition of Amy Amy Amy takes the story into 2008 with her success at the American Grammies, where she won five awards, her disintegrating marriage and more headline grabbing antics in the bars of Camden Town.
