The Extraordinary Life of Freddie Mercury

The Extraordinary Life of Freddie Mercury

Summary

Farrokh Bulsara was a little boy growing up in Zanzibar, who was shy and gentle and kind, and sometimes teased for his unusual teeth.

Farrokh would grow up to become the superstar musician Freddie Mercury, who could hold crowds in the palm of his hand and stun audiences with his musical talent (and who would one day say that those very same teeth are what gave him his distinctive voice and four-octave range).

This is the story of a man who sang his way to the top, a man whose extraordinary influence on the world is still felt to this day.
