Serge Gainsbourg was famous - or infamous - for his 1969 hit Je T'Aime . . . Moi Non Plus, in which he and Jane Birkin simulated the sounds of sex. The song's notoriety overshadowed an often brilliant - and wildly controversial - career as a composer, novelist, director, and actor. A shameless and charming self-promoter, Gainsbourg rose from humble beginnings to become the lover of such icons as Catherine Deneuve and Brigitte Bardot. He continued scandalising polite society until his death in 1991; among his many infamies are a scandalous reggae arrangement of La Marseillaise and songs celebrating masturbation, incest, Nazism, and oral sex.
Serge Gainsbourg: A View from the Exterior exposes the life and motivation of this complex, prolific musician, from his first employment as jobbing performer to his eventual status as revered national treasure.

Not sure what was non mint about this book but a beautiful copy to complement my table and lure in visitors
I love this store, I have found so many unique titles, both for myself and as gifts for friends and family. There are always fantastic offers and the delivery and service is second-to-none. Plus it’s great to be able to support a smaller business and not continue to put money in the pockets of you-know-who.
Bought this as a Secret Santa present for a friend and know they're going to love it. Arrived on time, excellently packaged and a reasonable price. Very happy with buy. Liam
