Elton John has added to his farewell events with news that his autobiography will be published this October.
“I’m not prone to being a nostalgic person,” Sir Elton said in a statement. “I’m often accused of only looking forward to my next gig or creative project. It’s come as quite a surprise how cathartic I am finding the process of writing my memoirs. As I look back, I realize what a crazy life I have had the extreme privilege of living.”
The title of the book is yet to be announced. “I have grown up in a period of extraordinary change in our world – and have had the joyful honor of rubbing shoulders and working with so many of the people at the heart of these changes. My life has been one helluva roller coaster ride and it’s still lumbering on. I hope readers will enjoy the ride too,” he said.
Pre-orders for the book are open now at https://www.panmacmillan.com.au/9781509853311/
Elton John’s biopic ‘Rocketman’ will be released in cinemas on 31 May, 2019.
Elton’s Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour will reach Australia in November.
