註釋The press reports her every move, her fans defend her every faux pas as if she were divine, her detractors think she's the devil in a bustier, and Norman Mailer thinks she's our "greatest living female artist." In short, Madonna is the biggest star in the world.
Unlike some stars, Madonna isn't famous simply for being famous. She's carved her popularity and her notoriety out of chart-busting singles, sold-out tours, movie roles in Desperately Seeking Susan and Dick Tracy, her best-selling book, Sex, and the most artistically sound music videos in the genre.
Encyclopedia Madonnica appraises all aspects of Madonna's brilliant career, but it doesn't stop there. With a book chock-full of fabulous photos, Matthew Rettenmund has compiled information on Madonna from her childhood in Michigan and her early years in New York, as well as from her heady international success and her present status as unpredictable provocateur, insatiable sex siren, and pop culture goddess. In hilarious, info-packed entries, Rettenmund pokes fun at everything from Madonna-hatred to Madonna herself, all from a Madonna-friendly stance.
Encyclopedia Madonnica is a fan's dream come true. It's the first appraisal of all things Madonna that documents the entire Madonna phenomenon and gives the star credit where credit is due. Matthew Rettenmund's irreverent writing style also manages to capture what happens to be Madonna's major appeal: FUN. If you've ever had fun listening to, watching, or thinking about Madonna, you'll love Encyclopedia Madonnica.
