A pretty good book.
I bought this book one day at a bookstore because I didn't have much money but I was deeply interested in the Cobain story. I ended up being enthralled by it and I loved it.
But it does have some serious flaws. If you are someone who has a passing interest in Nirvana or someone who wants a very affordable, quick explanation of Kurt Cobain's story because of his popularity & influence, then this may be a good book for you. But if you are someone who loves Nirvana or someone who wants to actually understand Kurt Cobain's story as best as possible, don't get this book and instead purchase "Heavier Than Heaven" by Charles Cross.
Although Never Fade Away is an interesting book and it does describe some good stories & good information, upon reading Heavier Than Heaven I realized how inadequate Never Fade Away is. Charles Cross was given access to deep important information that others can not chance upon, and it makes Never Fade Away look unresearched and from afar. It gets important facts wrong, occasionally. Heavier Than Heaven truly is the definitive biography.
Great book
I've yet to actually buy my own copy of this book, but I plan on it!! I borrowed my boy friend's copy and finished it within a week. Very thorough and descriptive. I can't wait till I get around to buying my own copy.
Not enough info
This book was good in some parts about how his childhood was a factor in Kurt's suicide. The photo of his body being carried out to the examiner's van was pretty disturbing and sad. Overall, a very mediocre book. R.I.P Kurt!
