Jermaine Jackson writes about Michael in a book
A long-rumored story about a book being written about Michael Jackson by his brother Jermaine has finally taken on the scent of truth.
Simon & Schuster in the United States announced yesterday that Jermaine Jackson’s book, titled “You Are Not Alone: Michael Through a Brother’s Eye,” will be released this coming fall. The publisher promises that the book will be faithful and loving, but without crossing boundaries. HarperCollins, which publishes the book at the same time as Simon & Schuster, describes it as a look at history from the inside.
The book will detail Michael’s life from childhood, the stunning success of the 1980s and 1990s, the 2005 trial, and the last weeks of his life, which were spent preparing for concerts. Jermaine said:
"We don’t want Michael’s life and death to become an eternal mystery. I want to talk about the issues that truly happened. I hope I can help people who have had trouble understanding the world of my brother. People have said a lot about Michael and about us. They have nothing left to say. Now it’s our turn."
Natalie Jerome, the book’s editor, says:
"Only a handful of people like Michael Jackson exist in this world, and there has been a great deal of passion and interest in learning the truth of his real life—without answers. I had an image of Michael in my mind, but after reading Jermaine’s book, that image has been completely shattered. I think fans will be shocked when they read this book."
