Synopsis

In his brilliantly original Tonight the Music Seems so Loud, bestselling author Sathnam Sanghera portrays the extraordinary life, and times, of one of Britain's most beloved musical icons – George Michael.

Through the lens of George Michael's life, Sathnam Sanghera, the prize-winning author of Empireland, writes a kaleidoscopic story of immigration; homophobia; fame; the 80s and 90s; creative and musical genius; the tabloids; addiction; obsessive fans; shame; and why the love for George Michael has only grown in the years since his tragic death on Christmas Day 2016.
