Rezension ~ Harry Styles: The Making of a Modern Man

 
Cover von HarperCollins

𝕀𝕟𝕙𝕒𝕝𝕥

Harry Styles has grown up. The One Direction boy-band member so loved by millions has become a truly global superstar and genuine icon of our times.

In this captivating biography for fans from day one as well as a whole new generation, bestselling author Sean Smith follows the journey of a thoroughly modern man with boundless charisma, who represents a better world devoid of prejudice.

At 16, Harry’s life changed forever when he left his home in rural Cheshire to appear on The X Factor – and never went back. Harry Styles: The Making of a Modern Man paints a picture of a man who at times remains an enigma, while embracing the world he cares about – his family, his friends and lovers, his music, acting and the world of fashion.

Harry is the only British male artist to have his first two albums debut at number one in the US; his movie career is flourishing with starring roles in Don’t Worry Darling and My Policeman, and he is the first man to appear solo on the cover of Vogue. A champion of gender-fluid fashion, he has proved himself to be an inspiring role model in a world where toxic masculinity has no place.

In troubling and uncertain times, Harry Styles lives by his own mantra, which would benefit us all – ‘Treat People with Kindness’.

Als großer Fan von Harry Styles war ich sehr gespannt auf diese Biografie. Im Gegensatz zu den anderen Mitgliedern von One Direction hat er eine beispiellose und grandiose Solokarriere hingelegt.

Der Schreibstil ist leicht verständlich, ich habe es sehr gut verstanden und konnte es relativ schnell lesen.

Das Buch erzählt von Harrys Anfängen bei X-Factor, seine Zeit mit One Direction, seiner Solokarriere und seinen Filmrollen. Auch über sein Privatleben, seine Kindheit, seine Familie und seine Motivation erfahren wir viel.
Das Kapitel über das Horoskop hätte man sich allerdings sparen können.

Teilweise war es zu mir ausführlich, Informationen über Personen in Harrys Leben, die mich nicht wirklich interessiert haben. Abgesehen davon ein tolles Buch über Harry.

Ein Muss für Harry Styles Fans.
