Walter Isaacson's biography of Elon Musk will be published in September. The writer and the electric vehicle mogul began chatting at the end of 2021.

Isaacson delves into a key moment in the life of the eccentric owner of several corporations. The South African's relentless activity makes it difficult to predict when he will write the next episode of his existence. It is comparable to the quintessential schoolyard traumas of his childhood in his native Pretoria, the author says.
