Prince to Publish Memoir in 2017

By Daniel Kreps | In what will be one of the most anticipated memoirs in music history, Prince has revealed that he is working on an autobiography that his publishers Spiegel & Grau describe as "an unconventional and poetic journey through his life and creative work."

The tome will find Prince writing in his own words about his family life, the "people, places and ideas that fired his imagination" as well as the inspiration behind many of his classic songs. Prince's as-yet-untitled memoir is scheduled to arrive in fall 2017.

"Prince is a towering figure in global culture and his music has been the soundtrack for untold numbers of people — including me — for more than a generation; his creative genius has provided the musical landscape of our lives," Spiegel & Grau Executive Editor Chris Jackson said in a statement. "Millions of words have been written about Prince — books and articles, essays and criticism — but we're thrilled to be publishing Prince's powerful reflections on his own life in his own incandescently vivid, witty, and poetic voice."
