      Elton John je trvalo najúspešnejší spevák a pesničkár všetkých čias, a jeho život je plný neuveriteľných triumfov a pádov. V knihe sa s úprimnosťou delí o svoj príbeh, od komických po srdcervúce momenty. Odhaľuje pravdu o svojom detstve v Pinneri a zložitom vzťahu s rodičmi. Ako Reginald Dwight bol najprv ostýchavým chlapcom s nereálnymi snami o popovej kariére. V dvadsiatich troch rokoch odohral svoj prvý koncert v Amerike, kde sa predstavil v nezabudnuteľnom oblečení, čo zmenilo svet hudby. Životopis je plný dramatických udalostí, od neúspešných hudobných pokusov s Berniem Taupinom po chvíle, keď sa mu ako hitparádovej superhviezde všetko vymykalo spod kontroly. Zaznamenáva priateľstvá s Freddiem Mercurym a Georgom Michaelom, ako aj osobné boje, vrátane pokusov o samovraždu a tajnej drogové závislosti. Elton píše dojímavo o svojej ceste k abstinencii a založení nadácie na boj proti AIDS. Zdieľa príbehy o skutočnej láske s Davidom Furnishom, dovolenkách s Versacem a spievaní na pohrebe princeznej Diany. Keď si uvedomí, že chce byť otcom, jeho život sa opäť mení. Táto veselo vtipná a hlboko dojemná kniha vás vezme na intímnu cestu so žijúcou legendou.

    • A deeply personal account of Elton John's life during the era of AIDS and an inspiring call to action. In the 1980s, Elton John saw friend after friend, loved one after loved one, perish needlessly from AIDS. He befriended Ryan White, a young Indiana boy ostracized because of his HIV infection. Ryan's inspiring life and devastating death led Elton to two realizations: His own life was a mess. And he had to do something to help stop the AIDS crisis. Since then, Elton has dedicated himself to overcoming the plague and the stigma of AIDS. The Elton John AIDS Foundation has raised and donated $275 million to date to fighting the disease worldwide. Love Is the Cure includes stories of Elton's close friendships with Ryan White, Freddie Mercury, Princess Diana, Elizabeth Taylor, and others, and the story of the Elton John AIDS Foundation. Sales of Love Is the Cure benefit the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
