REMEMBERINGS
Sinéad O’Connor is making a return to the public eye, with her memoir REMEMBERINGS, published last week, and new music to be released later this year. And I honestly could not be more excited. O’Connor provides her own perspective on her life and career, including the fame that came with the success of “Nothing Compares 2 U” and the vitriol she faced after her SNL performance and the incident with the photograph of the pope. Like FRAMING BRITNEY SPEARS, O’Connor’s book offers a chance for us to reassess the way we’ve treated female pop stars in the past—especially in the media. If you want to try a sample (that will undoubtedly make you rethink what you think you know about O’Connor) before committing to the whole book, this recent New York Times profile should do the trick.
