Lily Allen to publish autobiography
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 8 November 2017
Bonnier Publishing imprint Blink has acquired the English language rights to an autobiography by Lily Allen.
“Some of it I think might be uncomfortable and shocking and brutal”, says Allen of her plans for the book. “There will be good stuff in there too; happy times. I will try and make it funny. I know it’s about me but I hope that a lot of it will ring true with anyone who reads it. It won’t be written with shame. It will be true”.
Blink MD Ben Dunn adds: “A book like this doesn’t come along very often. We were completely blown away by the proposal and sample material. It will not only appeal to her generation and fans of her music, but speaks to a wider polemic about the issues society faces today”.
Blink also recently secured the global rights to Who frontman Roger Daltrey’s autobiography. Both books are set to be published next year.
