Description
In this compelling biography, Christopher Sandford explores the full, inside story of Kurt Cobain.
From the disruptive childhood which had such a crucial impact on Cobain's personality to the ambitious career musician who, as a friend said, "lunged for success", and the worldwide breakthrough of Nirvana's Nevermind, Sandford also writes about Cobain's stormy marriage to Courtney Love, his heroin addiction, and how he became more and more of a recluse. Finally, he writes of the crisis when, in April 1994, Cobain turned a shotgun on himself and became a martyr for disaffected youth.
The result is a saga of success and corruption which John Peel has called "the ultimate rock and roll morality story".
The classic biography which explores the shocking drama of Kurt Cobain's troubled life
