About this book
Patti Smith looks back on her arrival in New York and the friendship with Robert Mapplethorpe that helped shape both their artistic lives. Beginning with precarious jobs, borrowed rooms and ambitious dreams, the memoir follows their search for a place in the city's creative world. The Chelsea Hotel, bookstores, poetry and emerging music scenes form the backdrop, but the central story is an intimate relationship changing as two young people discover their work. Tender, candid and sometimes elegiac, Smith's account gives everyday struggles as much attention as the encounters that later became part of cultural history.
