Jackson's Moonwalk in Chinese.
For music fans, Moonwalk, Michael Jackson's one and only autobiography, is a must-read. First published in 1988 and re-released on October 13 as a result of Jackson's sudden death, the book has recently been translated into Chinese.
Beginning his music career when he was 4, Jackson is considered as one of the most exciting and instrumental performers of his generation. Known for his signature moonwalk and high-octane dance moves, the super-star was constantly surrounded by controversy about his personal life.
Despite being a private person, in Moonwalk Jackson opens up and talks frankly about his closeness with his brothers, his relationship with his father, his first love, the crushing isolation of his fame and his plastic surgery.
With the introduction written by Motown founder and close friend Berry Gordy, the six-chapter book leads readers down the road of Jackson's journey to megastardom and as a music legend of all time.
Moonwalker was written when Jackson was in his early 30s. In the new Chinese edition, the later part of his life is supplemented with rare photos from Jackson's archives and memories from his friends.
