About the author:

Dirk Timmerman who was born in Belgium was inspired by Madonna when he first saw the VHS of The Virgin Tour, where Madonna made the introduction ‘I went to New York, I had a dream. I worked really hard, and my dream came true’. This statement made such an impression on him that he also wanted to work in the international music industry, which he’s still doing to this day. For the past 35 years, he has become a Madonna musical archeologist and writer.

    Hello,

    When will the digital copies become available? I am in Melbourne Australia which just began a 6 week lockdown yesterday & it would be a $1600 fine if I were caught going to the post office or Parcel Locker to pick up my copy & I don’t want to wait that long, as I am in the book.
    I will still get the Hardcover physical copy as well but want to see it now.

    Thank,
    Steven Carter/White
