In this memoir, singer-songwriter Patti Smith shares tales of New York City : the denizens of Max's Kansas City, the Hotel Chelsea, Scribner's, Brentano's and Strand bookstores and her new life in Brooklyn with a young man named Robert Mapplethorpe--the man who changed her life with his love, friendship, and genius.

I really enjoyed this one. I knew absolutely nothing about Robert Mapplethorpe, so it was interesting to learn about Patti Smith’s muse and the artist behind that iconic album cover.

The book is beautifully written, and reading about her accounts of casually hanging out with the likes of Janis Joplin and William Burroughs, the life at the Chelsea Hotel, or having Bob Dylan walk into her concert, makes you want to be there in that place and time
