Just Kids

"Just Kids" by Patti Smith
Just KidsPatti Smith's memoir of living with Robert Mapplethorpe in the early '80s is a lurid, evocative, and beautiful representation of the life of a struggling artist. Though she eventually became one of the most influential members of the punk scene, her memoir chronicles her life before the fame. Not only does this show how she developed into a rock star, but it also provides a relatable story of the strive for success in New York. Buy it HERE! [Photo via]
