The Dark Story of Eminem

Nick Hasted's book traces Marshall Mather's rise to fame from the schools and workplaces of his native Detroit to global superstardom. Continually reviled, sued and criticised, Eminem continues to be a major cultural force and the author explores his impact on other stars from the Pet Shop Boys to Tori Amos. The book comes right up to date with an analysis of Eminem's success and his debut as a film star in the semi-autobiographical movie, "8 Mile".
