Bøger af Bruce Springsteen

Den danske udgave af bogen bag Barack Obama og Bruce Springsteens populære podcast med mere end 350 fotos og masser af eksklusivt bonusmateriale, der aldrig før har været offentliggjort.I et pladestudie fyldt med guitarer har to mangeårige venner en åbenhjertig samtale om liv, musik, race, maskulinitet og en stor fælles kærlighed til fædrelandet USA med alle dets udfordringer og modsætninger. Renegades er en ærlig, afslørende og underholdende samtale mellem præsident Barack Obama og den legendariske musiker Bruce Springsteen, som udforsker temaer fra deres private forhistorier og karriere-definerende øjeblikke til USA?s polariserede politiske liv og den voksende afstand mellem den amerikanske drøm og virkeligheden. Det er et smukt illustreret portræt af to rebeller med forskellige baggrunde, som leder efter en måde, hvorpå de kan knytte deres egen ukonventionelle søgen efter mening, identitet og fællesskab sammen med amerikansk historie.

Bruce Springsteen fortæller ærligt om sin næsten 50 år lange karriere i en stærk selvbiografi, der udgives på den samme dag, 27. september, over hele verden. Den ikoniske sanger og musiker Bruce Springsteen har i al hemmelighed skrevet på sin selvbiografi de seneste syv år. Han begyndte at arbejde på den i 2009 efter at have optrådt med The E Street Band til Super Bowl. I Born to Run beskriver han sin opvækst i Freehold i New Jersey imellem ”poesi, fare og mørke”, som det, der har næret hans fantasi. Han fortæller levende om sit stædige behov for at blive musiker – fra hans tidlige dage, hvor han var kongen over alle barmusikere i Asbury Park til dannelsen af The E Street Band. Med hudløs ærlighed taler han også for første gang åbent om de personlige kampe, der har inspireret ham til at skrive sine bedste sange og afslører, hvorfor sangen Born to Run har langt dybere selvbiografiske lag, end man tror. ”Det er noget underligt noget at skrive om sig selv”, skriver Bruce Springsteen i bogen.”Men i et projekt som dette har forfatteren givet læseren et løfte om at vise, hvem han virkelig er. Det løfte har jeg forsøgt at leve op til i denne bog”. Og det er ikke bare tomme ord, at han her viser sig, som han er. Born to Run er en sjældent ærlig og indsigtsfuld selvbiografi, hvor Bruce Springsteen ikke bare tager læseren med gennem sin ikoniske musikalske karriere, der strækker sig over næsten 50 år. Men også gennem en personlig historie fyldt med den form for kærlighed og svigt, tillid og usikkerhed, kampe og succes, som alle kan spejle sig i.

A revelatory memoir by a legendary rock star, Bruce Springsteen's BORN TO RUN will be the book of 2016.

In 2009, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band performed at the Super Bowl's halftime show. The experience was so exhilarating that Bruce decided to write about it. That's how this extraordinary autobiography began. Over the past seven years, Bruce Springsteen has privately devoted himself to writing the story of his life, bringing to these pages the same honesty, humour and originality found in his songs. He describes growing up Catholic in Freehold, New Jersey, amid the poetry, danger and darkness that fuelled his imagination, leading up to the moment he refers to as 'The Big Bang': seeing Elvis Presley's debut on The Ed Sullivan Show. He vividly recounts his relentless drive to become a musician, his early days as a bar band king in Asbury Park, and the rise of the E Street Band. With disarming candour, he also tells for the first time the story of the personal struggles that inspired his best work, and shows us why the song 'Born to Run' reveals more than we previously realized. Born to Run will be revelatory for anyone who has ever enjoyed Bruce Springsteen, but this book is much more than a legendary rock star's memoir. This is a book for workers and dreamers, parents and children, lovers and loners, artists, freaks or anyone who has ever wanted to be baptized in the holy river of rock and roll. Rarely has a performer told his own story with such force and sweep. Like many of his songs ('Thunder Road', 'Badlands', 'Darkness on the Edge of Town', 'The River', 'Born in the U.S.A.', 'The Rising', and 'The Ghost of Tom Joad', to name just a few), Bruce Springsteen's autobiography is written with the lyricism of a singular songwriter and the wisdom of a man who has thought deeply about his experiences.
