Iggy Pop's life has been one of extraordinary highs & terrifying lows. Infamous for his wild ways, he is also a towering figure of the rock scene
- hugely influential, charismatic & provocative.

Every 'mad, bad, dangerous to know' rock star owes a debt to him, & the stories of his shocking behaviour are legendary. But Iggy Pop is also, to a large extent, a construct, the alter ego of the quietly spoken & intriguing Jim Osterberg: the kid voted ' Most Likely to Succeed' by his classmates.

So what turned this charming, well-mannered, straight-A student into a poster child for rock 'n' roll debauchery? Iggy Pop: Open up & Bleed reveals the truth behind the myths.

Former MOJO editor Paul Trynka tracked down the star's friends, family, lovers & fellow musicians, conducting over two hundred & fifty interviews, unearthing countless new stories about Iggy's rollercoaster life, his music & his often misunderstood friendship with David Bowie.

From this impeccable research he creates a fascinating portrait of a man at war with the world & with himself.

With never-before seen photos, this is the definitive biography of one of rock's most extraordinary legends!

This paperback book has 450 pages & measures: 19.7 x 12.6 x 3cm.
