Synopsis
Nirvana front man and grunge rock saint Kurt Cobain left a considerable legacy of music and a considerable amount of anguish behind him when he committed suicide in 1994. JOURNALS, a collection of letters, rough drafts, diary entries, cartoons, and simple unedited thoughts, offers revealing glimpses of the inner workings of a mind that always seemed to be working overtime, and which Cobain often tried to switch off with doses of heroin. The handwritten and typed entries take us from Nirvana's early days, when the band had just been signed by Sub Pop and Cobain was recounting its discovery by Seattle's hip kids to the Melvins' Dale Crover, to a few years later, and the depths of Cobain's despair at the shortcomings of fame. In between there are some imaginative and some unworkable ideas for videos, letters to friends, and an amusing and poignant prose sketch of Cobain spending an evening with Krist (then Chris) Novoselic ripping on, and ultimately destroying, the unacceptably lame elements of Novoselic's record collection. By turns smart and smart-assed, intensely creative, and hopelessly despairing, the crude honesty of these scraps from Cobain's inner life reveals both their iconic writer's fierce intellect and his deep insecurity.
Publisher's Note
From the late 1980s until his death in 1994, Kurt Cobain kept a record of his innermost thoughts about his life and career in a series of dime-store notebooks. Brimming with lyrics, drawings, writings, lists of favorite songs, production notes, and letters to fellow musicians, friends, and family members, more than twenty of these notebooks survived the tumultuous events of Cobain's life. Safeguarded since his death, they have not been seen by the public until now. The most remarkable excerpts from these notebooks have been gathered together in KURT COBAIN'S JOURNALS. Presented in full-color facsimile format, they reveal Cobain's uncensored views about fame, Nirvana, his public image, and his place in music history. They include new disclosures about his health problems and drug use, and blunt assessments of the artists he respected and of those in the media he despised. Cobain shares his deepest and most private thoughts about his sex life and his politics, his unabashed love for his wife and daughter, his bitter critiques of the music business and right-wing politics, and his doubts about his own creativity and ambition. Together, these journal entries create an extraordinary portrayal of the personal and professional evolution of the most compelling musician of his time, and of a distinctive era in American popular culture.]]>

About Henry Miller: The Paris Years by Brassai: Miller inhabited Paris from 1930 to 1939 and during this period he went from a "middle-aged vagrant" to one of the most renowned and notorious authors who would jolt a generation with two seminal works--Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn. While in Paris he met and became a close friend of Brassaï who he quickly sensed was a kindred spirit and thus was born a life-long friendship that Brassaï here documents from unpublished letters, recollected conversations and references to Miller's writings. This is Brassaï's intimate account of Miller's self-discovery and coming of age as a writer and thinker.
NEXUS, the last book of Henry Miller's epic trilogy The Rosy Crucifixion, is widely considered to be one of the landmarks of American fiction. In it, Miller vividly recalls his many years as a down-and-out writer in New York City, his friends, mistresses, and the unusual circumstances of his eventful life.

Industry reviews
Written as a guide to prepare prospective college students and their parents for the escalating costs of a college education, Davis, senior associate editor of Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine, takes a comprehensive approach to develop a strategy to afford a higher education. Davis does an excellent job of explaining various investment avenues for financing a college education. Information concerning how financial-aid officers determine eligibility and practical advice on how to negotiate a better aid package are but a few items sure to be of interest to those preparing to pay for a college education. Davis's book is highly readable and will probably be most valuable to parents preparing to save for their children's education, though college students too will benefit from this well-written, well-organized book. Recommended for public libraries. Dennis Krieb, St. Charles Cty. Community Coll. Lib., St. Peters, Mo.
