Serge Gainsbourg, hoy un icono francés, fue cantante, escritor, compositor y pintor, pero mayormente durante casi todo el tiempo fue un infatigable provocador, un tipo de impredecible comportamiento en su vida pública. Ya de crío Serge era un niño judío que fanfarronea por las calles de un París bajo la ocupación alemana; y luego un joven y tímido poeta que abandona su pintura y su habitación para dejarse embaucar por los cabarés de transformistas de los años 60. Esta es una "vida heroica" donde las criaturas de la mente se plasman en la pantalla y la elocuencia se conjuga con los escándalos amorosos. Así nace una obra subversiva, con un ciudadano leal y rebelde como protagonista que hará vibrar al mundo entero.

The biography defines why Carson was an enduring star (his cool, his timing, his genuine laugh, his breadth of knowledge) and pursues his motivations and inner self (a loner with a drinking problem, a decent Midwesterner whose mother withheld approval, a quiet person who loved to entertain). The key to understanding him, argues the biography, is his love of magic.
