Book Review By Spark
Journals by Kurt Cobain

This is the story of the sudden rise to fame of a small town kid, who had difficulties adjusting to his overnight fame. It chronicals Kurt Cobain's life as a man in his early 20's who wants more than anything just to make music, and lives basically in poverty, working as a janitor to make money. He believes that young, white, men control the world, but should be stopped and that "sexism is the root of all other -ism's". Suddenly, Kurt is thrown into the spotlight--and a world he doesn't want to be in..
