'A gutsy account of tenacity and perseverance...Cher's voice reverberates with the grit and depth that made her famous.' The New York Times

THERE IS ONLY ONE CHER ...

... and for seven decades she has been showing us why. Cher holds the attention of the world with her voice, her acting, her style, her wit and her unstoppable spirit. Now, for the first time, she tells her story in her own voice - as honest as it is hilarious, as powerful as it is perceptive.

Cher's childhood was anything but normal. As her mother Georgia - blessed with movie-star looks and a knockout voice - moved them around the country over and again in the hope of finding fame, her school life wasn't straightforward. But she always knew she was going to be somebody when she grew up.

Cher's powerful instinct tokeep moving eventually landed her in the arms of Sonny Bono. The duo became famous beyond their wildest dreams, from humble beginnings singing backup in Phil Spector's studio through to pop stardom as Sonny and Cher, and then on to the television show that made them household names. But as time passed, fame changed the dynamic of their relationship and Cher evolved from a wide-eyed teenager into a woman. She started fighting for herself, breaking away from Sonny's control - and realising that things were not as they seemed.

Taking risks, making headlines, falling in love, Cher struggled and stumbled while trying to become her own woman. Cher: The Memoir, Part One brings us to the brink of her next chapter, as she begins to chart her own path, finally claiming her rightful place in the world and becoming CHER.

'No-holds-barred memoir' DAILY MAIL

'Cherilyn Sarkisian's life story is jaw-dropping...Could one celebrity's life really stretch to more than one book? This, it turns out, was very much the wrong question.
