Freddie Mercury, una vita di eccessi, droga, sesso e rock'n'roll. Ma sceso dal palco, lontano dalle luci, un uomo molto solo, timido, buono e generoso. Amato e sfruttato, poche le persone che gli sono rimaste fedeli.
"Ha pagato il prezzo più tremendo di tutti. So che non pensava di andarsene così, ma in un certo senso ha fatto a modo suo: voleva l'immortalità e l'ha avuta. "
Come il film, anche questo libro mi rimarrà nel cuore ❤️
