SynopsisIn one of the most unique memoirs of addiction ever published, Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx shares mesmerizing diary entries from the year he spiraled out of control in a haze of heroin and cocaine, presented alongside riveting commentary from people who were there at the time, and from Nikki himself. When Motley Crue was at the height of its fame, there wasn't any drug Nikki Sixx wouldn't do. He spent days - sometimes alone, sometimes with other addicts, friends, and lovers - in a coke and heroin-fueled daze. The highs were high, and Nikki's journal entries reveal some euphoria and joy. But the lows were lower, often ending with Nikki in his closet, surrounded by drug paraphernalia and wrapped in paranoid delusions. Here, Nikki shares those diary entries - some poetic, some scatterbrained, some bizarre - and reflects on that time. Joining him are Tommy Lee, Vince Neil, Mick Mars, Slash, Rick Nielsen, Bob Rock, and a host of ex-managers, ex-lovers, and more. Brutally honest, utterly riveting, and shockingly moving, The Heroin Diaries follows Nikki during the year he plunged to rock bottom - and his courageous decision to pick himself up and start living again."

Well Done
I like the presentation of this book as it comes across similar to a graphic novel. Very artistic and the quality of the paper is very high. I holding the book, just turning the pages... and the content is very serious. Must read for Motley fans, rock history, and addiction.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Because he'd been deaducated over his experiences.....
My book had an autograph on inside cover which was a nice surprise.Nikki's story was written in an unusually sort of non chronological way that served it's purpose as entertaining enough to hold my attention!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
