Publisher's summary

In this intimate account of Amy Winehouse's life, music, and untimely death, her father Mitch Winehouse gives readers full access to his daughter’s private life in the midst of her immensely public triumphs and tragedies.

Amy Winehouse needs no introduction. A critically acclaimed recording artist, Amy touched millions with her music during her short but extraordinary life. Following her tragic death in July 2011, Mitch Winehouse wants to tell her incredible story in full.

Amy, My Daughter will take the reader through her mischievous early years, her rise to stardom and to her much publicised struggles with addiction. The book will bring the many layers of her life together - the personal, the private, and the public - to create a fitting tribute to his much loved daughter.

Using exclusive extracts from the diary Mitch kept that details shocking and concerning events in his daughter's life, Amy, My Daughter promises to be the definitive book on an iconic figure who, although tragically taken at an early age, has left a musical legacy that will enthral audiences for many years to come.

All proceeds from the book will be donated to The Amy Winehouse Foundation, the charity that Mitch has established in Amy’s name to help children and young adults facing difficulty and adversity in their lives.

Mitch, Amy's Father

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

If the narrative had been less about Mitch the father and more about Amy the artist. It was painfully obvious that performance anxiety was at the root of the substance abuse YET performance was again and again encouraged and expected. Every time I heard the words "I recorded in my diary" it sounded like an awful, awful cashing in on family celebrity.

Would you ever listen to anything by Mitch Winehouse again?

Never.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Mitch Winehouse and Rupert Farley ?

Ummm...Amy's mother?

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Disappointment in how much insight I gained into the psyche of Mitch, but how very little was revealed about Amy.

Any additional comments?

God bless each and every one of our children. May their spirits soar...

Wonderful and heartbreaking

Disclaimer: Im a huge fan of Amy and like many others, embrced her into my heart from the second i heard her voice.
This book was eye opening in every sense. Not only about Amy, but also on being a parent to an alcoholic and a drug abusive daughter. I would recommend the book to anyone who can read of listen to it. I think it's important to realize what a difficult and unforgiving life can be when abusing a drug of any sort.
On top of that, Amy's story shold be heard on any corner of the world. She was an inspiration with a voice of a goddess and uncompromising honesty and she must never be forgotten. Love.
