Life With My Sister Madonna for $5
christopher ciccone's extraordinary memoir is based on his forty-seven years of growing up with, working with and understanding the most famous woman of our time. throughout most of the iconic star's kaleidoscopic career, christopher played an important role in her life: as her back-up dancer, her personal assistant, her dresser, her decorator, her art director and tour director. only christopher can tell the full and riveting story behind her carefully constructed mythology, and reveal the real woman behind the glittering facade. from their shared michigan childhood and the early days in manhattan, when he slept on her roach-infested floor and danced with her in clubs all over town, christopher was with her every step of the way, experiencing her first-hand in all her incarnations. the punk drummer, the raunchy boy toy, material girl, mrs sean penn, loving mother, mrs guy ritchie, english grand dame -- christopher witnessed and understood all of them, as his own life was inexorably entwined with that of his chameleon sister. he tangled with a cast of characters from artist jean-michel basquiat, to gwyneth paltrow, kate moss, demi moore and, of course, guy ritchie, whose advent in madonna's life splintered the loving relationship christopher once had with her. the mirror image of his legendary sister, with his acid ciccone tongue, christopher pulls no punches as he tells his astonishing story.

Stand and Deliver: The Autobiography for $5.99
one of the most successful pop stars of the 80s, his face adorning posters on teenager's walls from acton to akron, adam ant was a phenomenon. now in this frank and revealing autobiography, he tells the full story of his amazing life from his dysfunctional childhood to his key role in the punk movement and creation of a unique musical style that brought him a string of hits (both singles and albums). at one point he was so famous other stars sought his company and advice - even michael jackson called in the dead of night to ask about music and clothes. his many girlfriends included jamie lee curtis and heather graham and for a time he lived in la, acting in fifteen films. adam also writes honestly about his life-long battle with manic depression. his first episodes were triggered by the stress of living with a violent, alcoholic father, and he tried to commit suicide when he was at art school. a gruelling episode with a stalker in la precipitated a mental breakdown, and a stalker in london led to his well-publicised arrest and hospitalization in 2001. at times funny and at other times tragic, this is gripping account of the turbulent life and times of one of music's most fascinating figures. 'a whirlwind story of sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll, suicide attempts and deranged stalkers.' - "time out". 'with plenty of lessons to be learned about fame's downside, [this] is an intriguing tale, well and honestly told.' - "q magazine".
