Shuhada 'Davitt, better known as Sinéad O'Connor, has just announced the publication of his memoirs.

Already dubbed

Rememberings

, the book is due out June 1 next year from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Books and Media.

According to a press release relayed by the NME, the Irish singer and songwriter goes into detail about her childhood in an abusive family in Dublin, before recounting how music saved her.

“This is my story, as I remember it.

I've had a lot of fun writing it over the past few years, ”said the artist, who chose to change his name when he converted to Islam in 2018.

A year to heal

Last month, the

Nothing Compares 2 U performer

revealed that she is starting a year-long trauma and addiction treatment program.

She had also announced the postponement of her concerts scheduled for 2021 to 2022, specifying that she had gone through "six very traumatic years" and that her "healing" began this year.

Message for folks who have tickets for next year's shows: those shows are being postponed until 2022 so that I may go into a one year trauma and addiction treatment program because I had a very traumatic six years and this year was the end of it but now recovery starts.

No Veteran Dies Alone

, will be released if this therapy is successful.

“If I take this time to heal, I'll be ready for a lifetime of touring afterwards,” she added.
