Overview
¿Quién no ha cantado a pleno pulmón «I Want To Break Free»? ¿O dramatizado con total entrega «Bohemian Rapsody»?
Detrás de estas canciones, que forman parte de la historia de la música y de nuestra historia personal, hay un nombre propio: Freddie Mercury. Con su bigote, su chaqueta amarilla y su voz inconfundible, el líder de Queen es un icono para una generación, que bailó sus pegadizas melodías y lloró su muerte en 1991.
Pero, ¿quién fue Freddie? ¿Cuál es su historia? En esta biografía ilustrada, Alfonso Casas acompaña a Freddie Mercury desde Tanzania, donde nació, hasta Reino Unido, donde murió y se hizo inmortal cantando «Show Must Go On».
Su carisma sobre el escenario, su impresionante rango vocal y sus icónicos looks rompieron con el modelo clásico de estrella del rock, dejando claro que una persona puede salirse de lo establecido y aun así -o precisamente por eso- seguir triunfando.
Porque donde otros eran simplemente excéntricos, Freddie Mercury era libre.
