English singer Morrissey has reportedly pulled back his autobiography just three days before it was due to be published.

According to the statement released on a fan website, called 'True To You', the 54-year-old lyricist and vocalist of the band 'The Smiths' had a last-minute content disagreement with Penguin Books which has caused the venture to collapse, the Mirror reported.

Sources revealed that no review copies were printed and Morrissey is now in search of a new publisher for his memoirs, which contains details of his relationship with former songwriting partner Johnny Marr and his upbringing in Manchester.
