Soul

SoulT1951946803
On April Fool's Day 1984, hours before his 45th birthday, Marvin Gaye was shot dead by his father in the shared family home they called the 'Big House.' What happened there - and whether it was murder or suicide - has been shrouded in mystery since. In charting the untold truths about what happened during Marvin Gaye's haunting final days, Soul is a parable about an American family prepared to do anything to promote and protect their children. Not just the story of Marvin Gaye, but of many a musical icon whose family life has been crushed by the effects of their stardom - a searing portrait of the pitfalls of the American dream.
Author Roy Williams
