Me: Elton John Official Autobiography (Hardback)

'Me is its own original thing because Elton makes fun of no one more than himself. He is utterly, astonishingly, hilariously self-lacerating.’ - The Guardian

'Earlier this year the movie Rocketman gave a reasonably accurate overview of the Elton John story — but it barely scratched the surface of what’s in this memoir. The lurid parts will get all the headlines. But the man’s hard-won self-knowledge is what the book’s really about.’ –-The New York Times

'The rock biography’s traditional narrative arc is here - early struggle, drugs hell, business betrayals, famous friends - but it’s all bigger, shinier, the book equivalent of the Louis XVI costume John wore for his 50th birthday, where his vast wig meant he was transported to the party in a furniture van.’ - The Sunday Times

'The rock memoir of the decade' - The Daily Mail 

'Self-deprecating, funny ... You cannot help but enjoy his company throughout, temper tantrums and all' - The Times

'A chatty, gossipy, amusing and at times brutally candid account' - The Telegraph

'Hilarious, touching and surprising' - Independent

'Outrageously enjoyable ... racy, pacy and crammed with scurrilous anecdotes - what more could you ask from the rocket man?' - The Guardian

'It's a gift to finally hear from someone who has delivered so many of Taupin's words and so few of his own' - The New York Times

'A fitting testament to Elton's life ... unrelentingly enjoyable' - GQ

'Essential reading' - Rolling Stone

'Me is a riveting, laugh-til-you-cry, heartfelt page-turner ... it is the earnest, sweet, damaged "music mad" kid at the heart of Me that will stick with you.' - EW
