Synopsis "What Does This Button Do? The No. 1 Sunday Times Bestselling Autobiography "

`I was spotty, wore an anorak, had biro-engraved flared blue jeans with "purple" and "Sabbath" written on the thighs, and rode an ear-splittingly uncool moped. Oh yes, and I wanted to be a drummer...' Bruce Dickinson - Iron Maiden's legendary front man - is one of the world's most iconic singers and songwriters. But there are many strings to Bruce's bow, of which larger-than-life lead vocalist is just one. He is also an airline captain, aviation entrepreneur, motivational speaker, beer brewer, novelist, radio presenter, film scriptwriter and an international fencer: truly one of the most unique and interesting men in the world. In What Does this Button Do? Bruce contemplates the rollercoaster of life. He recounts - in his uniquely anarchic voice - the explosive exploits of his eccentric British childhood, the meteoric rise of Maiden, summoning the powers of darkness, the philosophy of fencing, brutishly beautiful Boeings and firmly dismissing cancer like an uninvited guest. Bold, honest, intelligent and funny, this long-awaited memoir captures the life, heart and mind of a true rock icon, and is guaranteed to inspire curious souls and hard-core fans alike.

Bruce Dickinson es un cantante, compositor, escritor y piloto británico, reconocido mundialmente como la voz principal de la legendaria banda de heavy metal Iron Maiden. Nació el 7 de agosto de 1958 en Worksop, Inglaterra. Desde joven mostró interés por la música y la historia, lo que más tarde influiría en su estilo lírico y escénico.

Se unió a Iron Maiden en 1981, aportando una voz potente y un carisma teatral que definieron la identidad del grupo. Con él al frente, la banda alcanzó fama internacional con álbumes icónicos como The Number of the Beast, Powerslave y Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. Dickinson es conocido por su registro vocal amplio, su energía en el escenario y sus letras cargadas de referencias históricas, literarias y filosóficas.

Fuera de la música, Bruce Dickinson ha desarrollado una carrera multifacética: es piloto comercial, empresario, autor y esgrimista competitivo. Ha publicado novelas, su autobiografía What Does This Button Do? y varios proyectos literarios y musicales en solitario. Su personalidad refleja una combinación de disciplina, curiosidad intelectual y pasión artística, que lo han convertido en una de las figuras más respetadas y completas del rock mundial.
