    Die Autobiografie

    In seiner Autobiografie enthüllt Paul Stanley, bekannt als 'The Starchild', erstmals, wie es war, jeden Abend mit KISS live aufzutreten und täglich wilde Partys zu feiern. Witzig und aufrichtig nimmt er die Leser mit auf eine bunte Reise durch die Höhen und Tiefen seines Lebens: von seiner schwierigen Kindheit in New York City über sein erstes Treffen mit Gene Simmons bis zur legendären Alive!-Tour, der dramatischen Trennung, der überraschenden Wiedervereinigung und der triumphalen Aufnahme in die 'Rock & Roll Hall of Fame'. KISS, mit zahlreichen Goldenen Schallplatten und über 100 Millionen verkauften Tonträgern, gehören zu den erfolgreichsten amerikanischen Bands der Popgeschichte. Stanleys Buch ist ein kompromissloses Selbstporträt eines Gitarren-Gottes und einer Rockikone. Er erzählt von Streitereien und Verrat, sowohl auf als auch abseits der Bühne. Diese Mischung aus privaten Enthüllungen, düsteren Episoden und humorvollen Anekdoten wird selbst die treuesten KISS-Fans überraschen. Zudem gibt er Einblicke in die Geschichten hinter berühmten Hymnen wie 'I Was Made For Loving You' und 'Rock'n'Roll All Nite'. 'Hinter der Maske' ist ein schockierender, witziger und wahrer Bericht über das Leben eines der berühmtesten Frontmänner der Rockgeschichte und die unsterbliche Band KISS, die er mitgründete. Stanley betont, dass er das Buch schreiben musste, um sich mit seiner Lebensgeschichte auseinanderzusetzen.
