Jermaine Jackson Writing Memoir About His Family and Late Brother Michael

Singer Jermaine Jackson is pulling back the curtain on his famous, if somewhat dysfunctional showbiz family. According to Reuters, Jermaine is writing a memoir about his family and specifically his brother, the late Michael Jackson.

The title 'You Are Not Alone: Through a Brother's Eyes' certainly indicates the perspective of the book, which is due out via Touchstone in Fall 2011. If anyone has an insider's view point of the King of Pop, it's Jermaine. This book certainly will have a captive audience, given the millions of fans who still mourn the loss of Michael Jackson and purchase music and memorabilia related to him.

The book examines the humble beginnings of the Jackson family in working class, blue-collar Gary, Ind. while providing a glimpse into the incredibly private life of Michael -- who often retreated to the security of his Southern California ranch, dubbed "Neverland."

Jermaine's relationship with Michael isn't the only familial bond explored in the book. He also addresses his relationship with his mother Katherine and the family's famously stern father, Joe. 'You Are Not Alone' will be a compelling read, that's for sure.
