Details: Celeste Bell and Zoë Howe "DAYGLO: The Poly Styrene Story" Book (2019, Omnibus Press). 0.9" H x 11.3" L x 8.5" W, 208 pages. New stock, hardcover. Short Description: "Poly Styrene was a singer-songwriter, an artist, a free-thinker, a post-modern style pioneer, and a lifelong spiritual seeker: a true punk icon. But this rebel queen with the cheeky grin was also a latter-day pop artist with a wickedly perceptive gift for satirizing the world around her. Based on interviews with those who knew and loved Poly (whether personally or through music) this honestly and openly explores her exceptional life, up until her untimely passing in 1991. It is about her growing up mixed-race in Brixton in the 1960s, to being at the forefront of the emerging punk scene with X-Ray Spex in the 1970s, to finding faith with the Hare Krishna movement, to balancing single motherhood with a solo music career and often debilitating mental health issues."
