Book ID/图书代码： 14327013B63402
English Summary/英文概要： MY MADONNA: MY INTIMATE FRIENDSHIP WITH THE BLUE EYED GIRL ON HER ARRIVAL IN NEW YORK, is an intimate memoir by Norris W. Burroughs. The memoir centers on the Material Girl herself. Mr. Burroughs had the distinct pleasure of dating the superstar just before her dizzying rise to fame. She was a bright-eyed nineteen-year-old dancer, a recent arrival to New York City, hungry for stardom but unsure of how she would get there. He was an aspiring rocker, spending his nights performing at CBGB,s and his days making t-shirts in the Garment District. There was something different about her, a yearning, a sense of forward propulsion. He knew he would not be able to hold on to her for long. It was Norris who initiated Madonna into his world of rock & roll, Norris who introduced her to her future band mates.
In MY MADONNA, Norris attempts to reconcile the young woman he knew and loved with the pop icon she has become. The book is a meditation on the slippery nature of fame, set against the backdrop of the grungy 80s music scene. Many books have been written on Madonna, but few have such an intimate, personal perspective and focus on this crucial time in her artistic development.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《我的麦当娜：这个蓝眼睛的女孩来到纽约后，我和她之间的亲密友谊》是诺里斯•巴勒斯写的私人回忆录。也是以“物质女孩”为中心的回忆录。在这个超级巨星出名前，巴勒斯先生非常荣幸有和她约会的机会。那时候她是一个有着明亮双眼的19岁的舞者，最近才到纽约，她渴望成为明星，但又不知道如何去做。他是一个有抱负的摇滚乐手，晚上在CBGB表演，白天就在服装区做t恤。她身上有一些东西在改变，她有一种前进的直觉。他知道他无法长期占有她。诺里斯带麦当娜进入了摇滚界并将她介绍给了她未来的乐队伙伴。
在《我的麦当娜》里，诺里斯试图让这个他熟知并爱着的年轻女孩与流行偶像的形象一致。这本书也是对八十年代乐坛背景下成名的不稳定的沉思。有很多关于麦当娜的书，但很少有这样从个人的角度出发，并着眼于她艺术发展的关键时期。(LNL)

Norris W. Burroughs is a writer and illustrator who was born in Harlem, New York. Burroughs dated Madonna in the fall of 1978, when she had recently arrived in New York from Michigan, several years prior to her amazing success. Madonna’s biographers have interviewed Burroughs, and his quotes appear in most accounts of her life, but he has never told his story in his own words. Burroughs feels that it is vital to place Madonna’s ascent in the context of the contemporary New York scene.Burroughs is the Author and Artist of Voodoo Macbeth, a graphic novel depicting the events surrounding a 1936 performance of the Shakespeare play that impresario Orson Welles staged and directed. Burroughs father was an actor in said production, playing the part of Hecate, a role that Welles changed to that of a male demonic force.Burroughs lives with his wife and son in Mill Valley, California.
