AlarconThe great thing about this book is that is brings back the days when fashion was this inventive and creative - especially the work of Alexander McQueen - and fortunately; the Web has all of his shows; so you can go back and view them again. Unfortunately; the writing is a slog. So many potentially great stories were suggested and then never followed up on. This was written by a journalist with an eye for details; who; what; when and where and she lists them all; but fails to develop anything beyond the surface. Unfortunately; both men come off looking like monsters although the writing makes one more sympathetic toward McQueen. Unless you are a dedicated fan of fashion; this book will bore you.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. The fashion industry from the ugly innards to the runwayBy Margies Grandgirlbought first copy as a gift. started reading it; then bought a second copy. if you want to learn more about the two designers; great. if you want to learn more about the innards of the high fashion industry; even better. it isnt all thin models in fashion shows; celebrity filled audiences; trendy parties; and art. "gods and kings" provides a perspective of the raw and sometimes inhumane exploitation of designers in the high fashion industry.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Fashions VictimsBy Kindle CustomerGods and Kings is an excellent chronicle of the lives of two fashion superstars and the toll it took on their lives. Recognized as wunder kinds for their vision and crafting abilities; they never grew beyond their fame to quiet their personnal demons. McQueen silenced his by committing suicide and Galliano through career suicide. Their stories are interesting because their lives intersected at school in a similar path to fame and success. They crashed at the same time with Galliano left standing; more or less. Left me with the impression that while true creativity is a little crazy it destroys when it is all crazy or certainly did in the case of these two men. All in all an interesting book.
