A contemporary classic, Please Kill Me is the definitive oral history of the most nihilistic of all pop movements. Iggy Pop, Richard Hell, the Ramones, and scores of other punk figures lend their voices to this decisive account of that explosive era.
Beautifully book, really a feat of cultural immersion and storytelling and narrative-making. I laughed a lot and cried at the end.
