Memoarer & Biografier

Det blir en världsnyhet när Stefan Eriksson i 345 km/tim kraschar sin Ferrari Enzo mot en elstolpe i Malibu. Bilen klyvs på mitten - Stefan kliver ur vraket barfota med en sprucken läpp. Plötsligt känner hela världen till den svenske maffialedaren "Tjock-Steffe" och en makalös livshistoria rullas upp. <br/><br/>Om den lilla grabben på knattecrossen i Uppsala som blev en av grundarna till IT-fenomenet och miljardföretaget Gizmondo, uppfyllde pojkdrömmen att köra 24-timmarsloppet i Le Mans, svors in som polis i USA och blev vän med knarkkungen Pablo Escobar. <br/><br/>Bakom den glittrande fasaden döljer sig en komplex man, präglad av ett sökande efter det som inte går att köpa för pengar. I denna fängslande självbiografi berättar Stefan Eriksson för första gången hela den osminkade sanningen om det som hänt. <br/><br/>Det blir en resa genom ett liv fyllt av extrema höjder och djupa dalar. En värld av maktspel, förräderi och en komplex inre kamp. Det är en berättelse som utforskar de psykologiska djupen hos en man som alltid har strävat efter mer, men som i grunden söker något enklare: en plats att kalla sitt hem.

<i>People say to me, if you could do it all again, knowing what you know now, would you change anything? I'm like, f*** no. If I'd been clean and sober, I wouldn't be Ozzy. If I'd done normal, sensible things, I wouldn't be Ozzy.</i><br/><br/><i>Look, if it ends tomorrow, I can't complain. I've been all around the world. Seen a lot of things. I've done good... and I've done bad. But right now, I'm not ready to go anywhere.</i><br/><br/>At the age of sixty-nine, Ozzy Osbourne was on a triumphant farewell tour, playing to sold-out arenas and rave reviews all around the world.<br/><br/>Then disaster.<br/><br/>In a matter of just a few weeks, he went from being hospitalised with a finger infection to having to abandon his tour - and all public life - as he faced near-total paralysis from the neck down.<br/><br/><i>Last Rites</i> is the shocking, bitterly hilarious, never-before-told story of Osbourne's descent into hell. Along the way, he reflects on his extraordinary life and career - including his turbulent marriage to wife Sharon, his regrets over Black Sabbath's reunion, his friendships with Slash and Zakk Wylde, and the harrowing final moments he spent with Motorhead's Lemmy Kilmister.<br/><br/>Unflinching but surprisingly life-affirming, <i>Last Rites</i> demonstrates once again why Ozzy has transcended his status as 'The Godfather of Metal' and 'The Prince of Darkness' to become a modern-day folk hero and national treasure.

Nobody's Girl [Bok / Inbunden]

<b>The extraordinarily powerful and unforgettable memoir by the late Virginia Roberts Giuffre, the woman who stood up and spoke out about Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell</b><br/><br/>The world knows Virginia Roberts Giuffre as Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's most outspoken victim: the woman whose decision to speak out helped send both serial abusers to prison, whose photograph with Prince Andrew catalyzed his fall from grace. But her story has never been told in full, in her own words-until now.<br/><br/>In April 2025, Giuffre took her own life. She left behind a memoir written in the years preceding her death and stated unequivocally that she wanted it published. Nobody's Girl is the riveting and powerful story of an ordinary girl who would grow up to confront extraordinary adversity.<br/><br/>Here, Giuffre offers an unsparing and definitive account of her time with Epstein and Maxwell, who trafficked her and others to numerous prominent men. She also details the molestation she suffered as a child, as well as her daring escape from Epstein and Maxwell's grasp at nineteen. Giuffre remade her life from scratch and summoned the courage to not only hold her abusers to account but also advocate for other victims. The narrative of Nobody's Girl preserve her voice-and her legacy-forever.<br/><br/>Nobody's Girl is an astonishing affirmation of Giuffre's unshakable will-first, to claw her way out of victimhood, and then to shine light on wrongdoing and fight for a safer, fairer world. Equal parts intimate and fierce, it is a remarkable narrative of fortitude in the face of depravity and despair.

In early 1985, Michael J. Fox was one of the biggest stars on television. His world was about to get even bigger, but only if he could survive the kind of double duty unheard of in Hollywood. Fox's days were already dedicated to rehearsing and taping the hit sitcom Family Ties, but then the chance of a lifetime came his way. Soon, he committed his nights to a new time-travel adventure film being directed by Robert Zemeckis and produced by Steven Spielberg--<i>Back to the Future</i>. Sitcom during the day, movie at night--day after day, for months.<br/><br/>Fox's nightly commute from a soundstage at Paramount to the back lot at Universal Studios, from one dream job to another, would become his own space-time continuum. It was in this time portal that Alex P. Keaton handed the baton to Marty McFly while Michael J. Fox tried to catch a few minutes of sleep. Alex's bravado, Marty's flair, and Fox's comedic virtuosity all swirled together to create something truly special.<br/><br/>In <i>Future Boy</i>, Fox tells the remarkable story of playing two landmark roles at the same time--a slice of entertainment history that's never been told. Using new interviews with the cast and crew of both projects, the result is a vividly drawn and eye-opening story of creative achievement by a beloved icon.

Detta är en självbiografisk berättelse om Jasna en ung flicka som saknar ord för att uttrycka sin rädsla över att vara ensam hemma med sin far. Hon växer upp i en destruktiv familjedynamik som på ytan verkar normal. Utåt betraktas fadern som en kompetent man, och de som anar något väljer att tona ner det. I stället är det Jasnas kropp som visar att allt inte står rätt till men ingen förmår tyda signalerna. <br/><br/>En dag ser Jasna en kvinna på teve. Till sin förvåning känner hon igen sig i kvinnans ord, trots att hon befinner sig på andra sidan jordklotet. Jasna bestämmer sig för att minnas hennes ansikte och mot alla odds kommer deras vägar att korsas i framtiden. <br/><br/>Berättelsen är både aktuell och tidlös. Den visar hur känslomässiga band till omsorgspersoner kan påverka barn långt in i vuxenlivet. Här synliggörs olika former av övergrepp mot barn och hur det outsagda påverkar individen, familjen och syskonrelationerna. Samtidigt är det en berättelse om mod, beslutsamhet och styrka om att förstå, bearbeta och till slut våga bryta tystnaden. <br/><br/>Första delen utspelar sig i det forna Jugoslavien, vilket ger berättelsen en stark historisk förankring.
