Roman
Candle: The Life of Bobby Darin
by David Evanier
A sensitive, startling portrait of the legendary singer-timed to hit
stores just as the Kevin Spacey movie Beyond the Sea has kindled intense
new interest in every aspect of Darin's life and tragically early
death. By age 8 Bobby Darin knew he was doomed to die young. So he
set out to become a showbiz legend by age 25. From his Grammy-winning
smash hit "Mack the Knife" to his Oscar-nominated supporting
role in Captain Newman, M.D., Darin left his mark on every aspect
of show business that he touched. Now, 32 years after his death at
age 37, we finally have an elegantly written, multilayered portrait
of this brash, gifted artist.

Darin: The Incredible Story of an Amazing Life
by Al Diorio
"Standing at the altar, the priest watched the
young couple walk toward him, acutely aware of the opposites they
represented..."
With the pending release of a major motion picture (Beyond the Sea)

revised this look at the performer's life, first published by Running
Press in 1981, now featuring a new epilogue and catalog of Darin's
works in music and film. Bobby Darin was a brilliant vocalist, song
stylist, six-time Grammy nominee, as well as a singer-songwriter,
an Academy Award nominated actor, and a stage performer who dazzled
crowds in Vegas. He was just beginning to savor fame when he died,
of complications from childhood rheumatic fever, at age 37.
