A ROUGH TRADE, MOJO, UNCUT & LOUDER THAN WAR BOOK OF THE YEAR
SHORTLISTED FOR THE RALPH J. GLEASON MUSIC BOOK AWARD
A redemptive, myth-shattering biography of one of the twentieth century's most underestimated creative and artistic forces.
'Here is the Odyssey of Nico . . . a scholarly and detailed chronicle of this brilliant artist, who was spurned and tortured for her trouble.'
IGGY POP
'At last, a comprehensive and compelling book about Nico.'
VIV ALBERTINE
'Absorbs from start to finish.'
OBSERVER
The real story of Nico is one of determination, self-destruction and belief in one's artistic vision, at any cost . . .
You Are Beautiful and You Are Alone is an empowering reappraisal of an underappreciated icon. Drawing upon new interviews and rare archival material Bickerdike defies the sexist casting of Nico's life as the tragedy of a beautiful woman losing her youth and fame, and instead cements her legacy as one of the most vital artists of her generation.
