Luther: The Life and Longing of Luther Vandross

"Seymour's brilliant book is like a great Luther song: elegantly written, effortlessly executed and eloquently delivered." - Michael Eric Dyson "Craig Seymour paints an intimate portrait of the man behind some of the most beautiful love songs of our time...Full of juicy anecdotes, fast-paced writing, and interesting analysis, the book reveals surprising new dimensions of this much-beloved balladeer." - E. Lynn Harris "...a sympathetic look at the most popular soul singer of his generation" - New York Daily News On July 1, 2005, the world lost one of the greatest R&B vocalists of all time, Luther Vandross. He left a legacy of some of the most enduring love songs of our age: â€œHere and Now,â€ â€œSuperstar,â€ â€œIf Only For One Night,â€ and â€œA House Is Not A Home.â€ The notoriously secretive star also left behind many questions such as the real-life inspiration behind all of those yearning love songs. The newly updated and expanded edition of Luther: The Life and Longing of Luther Vandross takes you deep inside the singerâ€™s private world. It chronicles his underdog journey from the projects of New York Cityâ€™s Lower East Side to the top of the charts, selling more than 20 million albums along the way. The book details Lutherâ€™s triumphs, as well as his struggles: his battle with weight; his feuds with Aretha Franklin, Anita Baker, and En Vogue; the 1986 car accident that killed his best friend and nearly destroyed his career; and the rumors about his sexuality that followed him throughout his life. The book offers specific new details about Lutherâ€™s love life that will help illuminate the private pain of the man who brought the world so much joy.
