LET LOVE RULE
Εκδότης Sphere , ISBN 9780751582109
'I see my story as a suite of songs that have a magical connection. I never
understood that connection until I sat down to write. It was then that the magic
started to flow.'
Let Love Rule is a work of deep reflection. Lenny Kravitz looks back at his life with candor,
self-scrutiny, and humour.
'My life is all about opposites,' he writes. 'Black and white. Jewish and Christian. The
Jackson 5 and Led Zeppelin. I accepted my Gemini soul. I owned it. I adored it. Yins and
yangs mingled in various parts of my heart and mind, giving me balance and fueling my
curiosity and comfort.'
Let Love Rule covers a vast canvas stretching from Manhattan's Upper East Side,
Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant, Los Angeles's Baldwin Hills, Beverly Hills, and finally to
France, England and Germany. It's the story of a wildly creative kid who, despite tough
struggles at school and extreme tension at home, finds salvation in music. We see him
grow as a musician and ultimately a master songwriter, producer, and performer.
We also see Lenny's spiritual growth-and the powerful way in which spirit informs his
music. The cast of characters surrounding Lenny is extraordinary: his father, Sy, a high-
powered news executive; his mother, Roxie Roker, a television star; and Lisa Bonet, the
young actress who becomes his muse.
The central character, of course, is Lenny, who, despite his great aspirational energy,
turns down record deal after record deal until he finds his true voice.The creation of that
voice, the same voice that is able to declare 'Let Love Rule' to an international audience,
is the very heart of this story.
'Whether recording, performing, or writing a book,' says Lenny, 'my art is about listening
to the inspiration inside and then sharing it with people. Art must bring the world closer
together.'
