Amy Winehouse's unread personal journals have been compiled in an upcoming new book, Amy Winehouse: In Her Words. It will also feature lyrics and photographs by the late singer and it is published by HarperCollins, set to launch on the artist's 40th birthday landing on August 29th. It highlights personal notes of her life and gives fans a closer connection to the artist.
The book is comprised of 288 pages and will curate what the publisher describes as “Amy’s own never-before-seen journals, handwritten lyrics, and family photographs together for the first time [...] this intimate tribute traces her creative evolution growing up in North London to global superstardom, providing a rare insight into the girl who grew up to become a legend.”
