Porcelain Av Moby

In the late eighties and early nineties, Moby, then an underground DJ and musician, was scraping out a living in New York City. In a scene popular chiefly among working-class African-Americans and Latinos, Moby - a poor, skinny, white Christian, vegan and teetotaller - looked like he would never make it. By the late nineties, contemplating the end of his music career, he released what he assumed would be his swansong, <i>Play</i>, which went on to become a multi-million-selling album, opening up an astonishing new phase in his life. <i>Porcelain</i> is an unfailingly honest, funny and brilliantly written memoir about making it, losing it, loving it, hating it and everything in between.
