He was known as the 'Godfather of Soul'. Others called him 'The Hardest Working Man in Show Business'. But who was the 'real' James Brown ? In Kill 'Em & Leave, award-winning novelist James McBride embarks on a personal journey to uncover the life and legacy of a soul genius. Yet this book is much more than just a biography : told through the lens of McBride's own background as an African-American and professional musician, it is also a stirring, lyrical account of the impact on popular music, and on the people around him, of one of the most influential and complicated figures of the twentieth century.
