“Ma sapete che cosa rispondo quando mi chiedono: «Che cosa fai quando è tutto contro di te?». Io dico: «Vai avanti. Vai avanti senza fermarti. Non importa se ti arriva uno schiaffo in faccia, tu porgi l’altra guancia. E il dolore che senti? Non puoi fermarti a pensare a quello che ti hanno fatto, adesso o in passato. Devi solo andare avanti».” Tina Turner, incontrastata regina del rock e leggenda vivente, racconta la sua illustre carriera e la sua complicata vita personale in questo memoir sincero e appassionante.
