»Im Laufe der Jahre ist allerhand verrücktes Zeug über mich erzählt worden: ›Er hat einer Fledermaus den Kopf abgebissen.‹ Stimmt. ›Er hat einer Taube den Kopf abgebissen.‹ Stimmt auch. Aber dann hörst du Sachen wie: ›Ozzy kam gestern Abend zum Auftritt, aber er wollte erst auf die Bühne, nachdem er fünfzehn Hundewelpen getötet hatte …‹ Fünfzehn Welpen töten? Ich? Ich liebe Welpen. Diese Geschichten verfolgen mich. Jeder Tag meines Lebens war ein Ereignis. Dreißig verfluchte Jahre lang genehmigte ich mir jeden Tag eine tödliche Kombination aus Hochprozentigem und Drogen.

Inclassable et fédérateur, adulé et méprisé, célèbre et discret... Tel est le paradoxe Goldman. La star de la chanson française a toujours préféré l'ombre rassurante de l'anonymat à la lumière artificielle et trompeuse des spotlights. Fruit de douze mois d'un véritable travail journalistique, Le mystère Goldman retrace son parcours intime avec quantité de témoignages et documents inédits (ses blessures secrètes, son histoire familiale tourmentée, le culte du secret, son rapport à l'argent...) et explore la carrière et la vie d'une personnalité moins lisse que certains veulent le croire !

Jean-Jacques Goldman n’est pas seulement un grand nom de la chanson. Il est aussi un enfant d’immigrés juifs devenu la personnalité préférée des Français, un artiste engagé après la mort des utopies, un artisan au cœur des industries culturelles, un homme en rupture avec les codes virils. Le succès n’a affecté ni sa droiture ni son humilité.
