    About this ebook

    ‘This is the truth as we know it. I have read so much about what people think they know about Michael, but this is about what really happened.’ Jermaine Jackson

    You Are Not Alone is an intimate, loving portrait of Michael Jackson, illuminating the private man like never before. It is an invitation into Michael’s real character, private insights and hidden feelings: the innermost thoughts of a fiercely private individual.

    Jermaine Jackson knew Michael like only a brother can. In You Are Not Alone Jermaine brings light to the man behind the mask of superstardom, an identity that has lingered in the shadows for too long. You Are Not Alone is a celebration of the real Michael: the boy who shared a tiny bunkbed with Jermaine at 2300 Jackson Street, Gary, Indiana; the brother with whom Jermaine shared laughter, tears and memories; the boy who would grow up to become a legend.

    Raw, honest and incredibly moving, You Are Not Alone is also a sophisticated, no-holds-barred examination of Michael Jackson, aimed at fostering a true and final understanding of who he was and what shaped him. This is Michael Jackson – the man, not the legend – through a brother’s eyes.

    If you love Michael Jackson, this is the only book you will want to read.

    If you think you know the Michael Jackson story, it’s time to think again.

      This is a good read simply because it reveals things we wouldn't typically know about MJ as well as the family dynamic, and of course Jermaine.
      It is a somewhat honest book, and presents the positive side with respect to the Jackson family. As for MJ it is a well balanced view. Not hailing him as a saint, nor a cold-shouldered brother.
    • 4/5
      First, let me admit that I was never a Jackson 5 or Michael Jackson fan as I just casually admired their music. Since the book was written be Jermaine Jackson I thought the book would be a totally biased "puff piece" but is was not. It is biased which is natural for a brother to defend his brother. But beyond this, the book shows the negative side of Papa Joseph Jackson's dominance of the family in the early years. The author also writes about many of the inter family squabbles over the years. So, I do believed the book was worth reading and it did give me a more sympathetic outlook toward Michael's struggles and a greater appreciation for his art, his work ethic and his charitable nature.
