★★★
This book is the definitive biography of Kurt Cobain by renowned American music journalist Charles R. Cross. Drawing on four years of research, over 400 interviews, and a wealth of unpublished material like Cobain's diaries, lyrics, and family photographs, the author vividly recounts the brief yet arduous life of this legendary rock star—from his tragic childhood to his lonely adolescence, his musical explorations in Aberdeen, and ultimately his rise to fame and suicide under immense public and media pressure. Heavier Than Heaven not only presents a brilliant portrait of the American underground rock scene of the 1980s and 1990s, but also rediscovers a hidden side of its central figure, Kurt Cobain. This is not only the story of a controversial music star, but also the story of a lonely child who yearned for love.
