  If you - as me- are a Nirvana fan this is the best biography of Kurt you'll ever find. It brings me back the spirit of the man, his art and the human being. Really good work.

  Oh my Nirvana days... How curious are changes in our life!
  I probably won't pick up the book again, but once in a while, I would turn up the volume, let "teen spirits" rock the whole building.
