  • "BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY: FILM, TELEVISION, MUSIC, THEATRE. One year ago, a modest middle-aged woman from a village in Scotland was catapulted to global fame when the YouTube video of her audition for Britain's Got Talent touched the hearts of millions all over the world. From singing karaoke in local pubs to live performance with an eighty-piece orchestra in Japan's legendary Budokan Arena and a record-breaking debut album, Susan Boyle has become an international superstar. This astonishing transformation has not always been easy for Susan, faced with all the trappings of celebrity, but in the whirlwind of attention and expectation, she has always found calm and clarity in music. Susan was born to sing. Now, for the first time, Susan tells the story of her life and the challenges she has struggled to overcome with faith, fortitude and an unfailing sense of humour. 'When I strutted onto the stage for that audition, I was a scared wee lassie, still grieving for my mother, not caring how I looked."
  • ""Hers is the ultimate Cinderella story. Susan Boyle went from being an obscure, unemployed Scottish church volunteer to one of the hottest personalities in the media just days. Within a week of hitting the Internet, Susan's audition video was viewed by a record-setting 66 million people worldwide. When her debut album, 'I Dreamed a Dream' went on sale, it too shattered records. In The Woman I Was Born to Be, Susan finally tells her own story of a difficult childhood, her learning disability, her mother's death, and the strong faith that kept her going through these challenges. Here, she shares the details of the private world and emotional life of an ordinary person who refuses to be held back"--Cover, p. 4."
