    French cult figure, Serge Gainsbourg is forever synonymous with 'Je T'Aime - Moi Non Plus' on which he and Jane Birkin simulated the sounds of erotic congress. But this 1969 Number One was a mere sideshow to an eye-stretching career in which he bestrode Gaelic culture as a singing composer, novelist, film director and actor. In this first full biography in English, Clayson reveals the whole, outrageous story, of this unlikely pop star: lover of icons, a natural at courting controversy via outrageous recordings.
