Περιγραφή για Scars Of Sweet Paradise: The Life and Times of Janis Joplin Alice Echols Virago Press Ltd 0731

The undisputed queen of sex, drugs and rock n\' roll was also the voice of a generation who, when she overdosed on heroin at the age of twenty-seven in October 1970; became the posthumous icon of bad girl femininity for millions around the world.Drawing on hundreds of interviews Echols renders Joplin in all her complexity, revealing how this sweet-voiced girl from Texas recreated herself, first as a gravely-voiced bluesy folksinger, and then as rock n\' roll\'s first female superstar. Echols examines the roots of her musicianship and her efforts to probe the outer limits of life; declaring herself the first white-black person and pursuing sex with men and women alike. Moving from the electric ballrooms of San Francisco to the mud-soaked fields of Woodstock, Joplin\'s story is also a chronicle of the revolutions of the sixties - a generation\'s experiment with high-risk living and the exacting price they ultimately paid for this. Written in a captivating novel-like style this is a deeply affecting biography of one of America\'s most talented, tormented and enduring stars.
