BRAVE, BEAUTIFUL AND BORN TO BE PUNK 

Musician,
actor, activist, and the iconic face of New York City cool, Debbie Harry is the
frontwoman of Blondie, a band that forged a new sound that brought together the
worlds of rock, punk, disco, reggae and hip-hop to create some of the most
beloved pop songs of all time. As a muse, she collaborated with some of
the boldest artists of the past four decades. The scope of Debbie Harry’s
impact on our culture has been matched only by her reticence to reveal her rich
inner life—until now.  

In
an arresting mix of visceral, soulful storytelling and stunning visuals, Face It upends the standard
music memoir while delivering a truly prismatic portrait. With all the grit,
grime, and glory recounted in intimate detail, Face It re-creates the
downtown scene of 1970s New York City, where Blondie played alongside the
Ramones, Television, Talking Heads, Iggy Pop and David
Bowie. Aesthetically dazzling, and including never-before-seen
photographs, bespoke illustrations and fan art installations, Face It brings Debbie
Harry’s world and artistic sensibilities to life.  

Following
her path from glorious commercial success to heroin addiction, the near-death
of partner Chris Stein, a heart-wrenching bankruptcy, and Blondie’s breakup as
a band to her multifaceted acting career in more than thirty films, a stunning
solo career and the triumphant return of her band, and her tireless advocacy
for the environment and LGBTQ rights, Face
It is a cinematic story of a woman who made her own path, and
set the standard for a generation of artists who followed in her footsteps—a
memoir as dynamic as its subject. 

“I was saying things in songs that female singers didn’t really
say back then. I wasn’t submissive or begging him to come back, I was kicking
his ass, kicking him out, kicking my own ass too. My Blondie character was an
inflatable doll but with a dark, provocative, aggressive side. I was playing
it up yet I was very serious.”—From Face
It 

“In this whirlwind tour of her life, Harry, one of the most photographed faces in music, deploys an irreverent style well suited to her story. Her tales of life before, during, after, and beyond her time with Blondie are intermixed with interludes that capture the eclectic and electric passion she has for the creative process. In a narrative that feels simultaneously heartfelt and spontaneous, Harry recounts close encounters with violence and harassment with the same immediacy as the moments that catapulted Blondie to worldwide fame. Harry doesn’t focus on the challenges of being a woman in the music industry but rather on the collaborations that fueled her creativity. Though her sound and style influenced rock, and especially women in rock, there’s refreshingly little self-congratulation in these pages. Instead, readers will find reflection on life with a budding band and an uncensored view of what it took to succeed...A wild ride of fame, friendships, music, and drugs sure to appeal to Blondie fans and 1970s rock in general.”
