Tim Bergling – The Official Biography will be released on November 2, 2021, according to Germany’s Apple Books page for the text, which includes the synopsis and an option to pre-order the book for those residing in Germany. The formal setting of the biography’s delivery date caps off speculation about when the written record of the beloved DJ’s life would come to light. Tim Bergling – The Official Biography was first announced in 2019, during which point Swedish journalist Måns Mosesson was identified as the author. At the time, the official biography was expected to hit shelves in 2020.
Tim Bergling – The Official Biography is described by the publisher as “the sound of a generation-the book of a generation.” The 304-page book will focus not only on Avicii’s successes, but also on the circumstances that led to his tragic death in 2018.
The publisher reports that readers can expect Måns Mosseson, “who was close to Avicii,” to go “in search of clues in talks with close friends, family members, and companions and tell the whole story of [Avicii’s] eventful life for the first time.” Mosseson’s text “is the honest and sensitive portrait of one of the world’s most popular stars of our time, who shaped an entire generation,” the publisher adds.
All proceeds from the book will benefit the Tim Bergling Foundation, a charity established by Avicii’s parents to help those struggling with mental health issues and support suicide prevention. Visit the text’s Germany Apple Books page for more information.
