Superstar dans SES propres mots - l'unique autobiographie de Michael Jackson. « J'ai toujours souhaité pouvoir raconter des histoires, des histoires qui viennent de mon âme. Je préférerais être assis autour d'un feu et raconter des histoires – amener mes auditeurs à voir des images, à pleurer et à rire, les transporter émotionnellement quelque part avec les moyens si apparemment simples du langage. Pas de costumes, pas de maquillage, rien, juste vous et votre voix... » Michael Jackson dans Moonwalk. Ce livre nous ramène dans sa vie : des débuts des « Jackson Five » à ses plus grands succès en tant que mégastar. Michael Jackson raconte en détail ses années dans sa ville natale de Gary, sa relation avec sa famille et ses amis comme Diana Ross ou Paul McCartney. Il offre des aperçus étonnamment ouverts sur sa manière de travailler et aborde pour la première fois les ombres de son succès. La peur de l'échec, les rumeurs nuisibles et sa solitude presque insupportable. Avec Moonwalk, Michael Jackson révèle l'homme derrière la star – de manière exceptionnellement ouverte et très touchante.

Two years later he and his older brothers scored their first hit, 'I Want You Back' - and, despite set-backs that would have ended the career of a lesser man, Michael's legion of fans remain as loyal today as they have ever been. This is the story of the man and his music...
Politics of Storytelling
- 312pages
- 11 heures de lecture
Hannah Arendt argued that the “political” is best understood as a power relation between private and public realms, and that storytelling is a vital bridge between these realms—a site where individualized passions and shared perspectives are contested and interwoven. Jackson explores and expands Arendt’s ideas through a cross-cultural analysis of storytelling that includes Kuranko stories from Sierra Leone, Aboriginal stories of the stolen generation, stories recounted before the South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and stories of refugees, renegades, and war veterans. Focusing on the violent and volatile conditions under which stories are and are not told, and exploring the various ways in which narrative reworkings of reality enable people to symbolically alter subject-object relations, Jackson shows how storytelling may restore existential viability to the intersubjective fields of self and other, self and state, self and situation.

Beyond the Battle
- 194pages
- 7 heures de lecture
Four years ago, author Michael Jackson was diagnosed with and cured of cancer. The treatment and aftermath of something no larger than the size of an egg would change his life forever. Jackson had spent so much time on his own pleasures that he never really focused on what God wanted him to be. Sometimes when we ignore God, He allows things to happen to get our attention. For the author, being diagnosed with cancer was his wake-up call. In Beyond The Battle, Jackson gives you a look at his lifestyle before and after he allowed God to take control of his life. He shares how the Lord used a hopeless situation and turned it into a blessing. When life gives you lemons, God can turn them into eternal peace and joy, but only if one is open to what God is doing to see where He wants to take you. The author hopes to inspire others who are going through difficult situations to trust in the heavenly father and find beauty in their life.

Coincidences
- 224pages
- 8 heures de lecture
Most people have a story to tell about a remarkable coincidence that in some instances changed the course of their lives. These uncanny occurrences have been variously interpreted as evidence of divine influence, fate, or the collective unconscious. Less common are explanations that explore the social situations and personal preoccupations of the individuals who place the most weight on coincidences. Drawing on a variety of coincidence stories, renowned anthropologist Michael Jackson builds a case for seeing them as allegories of separation and loss—revealing the hope of repairing sundered lives, reconnecting estranged friends, reuniting distant kin, closing the gap between people and their gods, and achieving a sense of emotional and social connectedness with others in a fragmented world.
