Description

Patti Smith's story is one of transformation and reinvention. From an unconventional childhood in post-war New Jersey to her ascension as queen of the New York arts scene, she defied expectations and forged her own path. Guided by Patti's own words, this book offers a measured and accurate account of her career, including her time in Detroit and her triumphant return to New York. Drawing on interviews with those who have known her, it provides a unique insight into the life and work of one of America's most significant artists. Through her story, Patti Smith emerges as a complex and multifaceted figure - poet, artist, musician, and advocate for liberal causes. This book is a testament to her enduring legacy and a fascinating exploration of the creative process.
