An immersive exploration of the little-known story of Rembrandts formative years by a prize-winning biographerRembrandts life has always been an enigma. How did a millers son from a provincial Dutch town become the greatest artist in the world? With his formative years shrouded in mystery, the only remaining evidence of Rembrandts life as a young man is his work.Deeply rooted in the turbulent changes that his hometown was undergoing, Rembrandts early paintings tell a fascinating story of artistic evolution against the backdrop of the widening horizons of Leidens cultural and commercial life during the Dutch Golden Age. Leidens good fortune facilitated Rembrandts. But who was that young man inventing himself as the city around him grew and prospered? How did Rembrandt become Rembrandt?To find out, Leiden native Onno Blom immersed himself in the world, the country, the city and the house in which Rembrandt was born in 1606 and where he spent the first twenty-five years of his life. The result is a fascinating portrait of the artist as a young man, rich in local and biographical detail, and restless in its efforts to seek out the roots of his genius.Onno Blom (b. 1969) is a biographer, literary critic, and columnist for de Volkskrant daily newspaper. He has published several books about writers and painters from his home city of Leiden. In 2018 he was awarded the prestigious Dutch Biography Prize for his book on the life of the sculptor, painter and novelist Jan Wolkers, which attracted controversy and became a bestseller in the Netherlands.

Gallops through the pre-mobile phone era with wit and chaotic energy.Sunday TimesA joyous rags-to-riches tale.Financial TimesNostalgic, salacious and bitingly witty. Joe LycettA delicious, neon-soaked fever dream.Munroe BergdorfI couldnt put it down. Annie Macmanus The defining book on the iconic noughties-era of pop culture in London as told by DJ Jodie Harsh, who saw, did and survived it all.Jodie Harsh arrived in London aged fifteen in 2001, heading straight off the train from Canterbury to her first club night at the Astoria. Intoxicated by this initial taste of city nightlife, she didnt leave the party for years, falling in with the right wrong people and exploring the sides of London best experienced under cover of darkness.Throughout the noughties, from Camden and Soho to Mayfair, from Notting Hill and Primrose Hill to Hackney Road, the city was a messy, beating, slick and sordid melting pot. New music, new fashion, new art, all came together in a mad, dizzying rush before - and during - the financial crash of 2008. Different scenes collided, exploded, were reborn and shaped across the city, at rapid speed.Harsh grabs us by the hand and leads us back to those decadent times: from the Astoria to The Cross, the Soho Revue Bar to Mahiki, Boombox to The End and her famous friends houses; to a time before social media and cameraphones were ubiquitous and a life without their perpetual scrutiny allowed for a more liberated, hedonistic and creative existence. You had to be there, and Jodie Harsh was. Every single night.
