Hellfire Full Description

The uproarious and frequently violent life and career of the legendary, and notorious, rock-&-roller Jerry Lee Lewis deserves the superlative biographical skills of virtuoso writer Nick Tosches, who brings alive the Killer`s frequently unhinged inner workings in HELLFIRE, a tour-de-force of meticulous research and imaginative prose. With his Southern Baptist religious upbringing in permanent conflict with his drunken, womanizing ways and his public performances of the Devil`s music, Lewis`s personal and professional lives have been fodder for news headlines for almost the entire history of rock & roll. Tosches begins his story by neatly conflating a cameo appearance by Elvis Presley`s dreaming subconscious with a fact-based nocturnal visit from a gun-toting Lewis; the subsequent mayhem sets the tone for the rest of the book. However, despite his retelling of Lewis`s violent marriages, and his controversial wedding to his underage cousin Myra Gale Brown, Tosches never lets his subject`s turbulent private life get in the way of his admiration for Lewis`s unrivalled musical talent, pointing out that at the beginning of his career he was more popular than Presley, and remained a potent force in rock & roll long after his rival`s career had descended into self-parody.
