Publisher Description

Det var sommaren då Coltrane dog. Sommaren då Jimi Hendrix satte eld på sin gitarr och Kina sprängde en vätebomb. Det var uppror i Newark och protestmarscher mot Vietnamkriget. Världen stod på tröskeln till en ny tid. Det var kärlekens sommar. Det var sommaren som förändrade mitt liv. Det var sommaren då jag mötte Robert.

Den heta sommaren 1967 lämnar Patti Smith New Jersey för att söka äventyret i New York. Hon är tjugo år gammal, törstar efter nya intryck och erfarenheter, vill inspireras och utvecklas. Och framför allt vill hon skapa. I New York träffar hon sin själsfrände Robert Mapplethorp, som blir hennes följeslagare under de kommande åren, då båda når stor berömmelse och revolutionerar sina konstarter; han som fotograf och hon som musiker och poet. Just Kids är både en innerlig kärleksförklaring till en älskad vän och en levande skildring av New Yorks dynamiska kulturliv i början av 70-talet. Här får vi möta en rad legendariska författare, musiker och konstnärer: Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Andy Warhol, Bob Dylan, William S. Burroughs, Tom Verlaine för att bara nämna några.

"This a a truly amazing book. The story itself could drive the whole piece, but the way she writes it is poetry in motion. If you love NYC, rock 'n roll history, biography of great artists, or just enjoy a quirky love story, this book will reel you in and keep you engaged until the last page. "

    " Patti smith is a really good writer and i thoroughly enjoyed this book. Such a sweet story on the bond between two people. Clearly i have A LOT more research to do on Patti and Robert. And i wish there had been more photos. "

    " An engaging story of the summer of love and the beginnings of the artist Robert Mapplethorpe and his friend and musical phenomenon Patti Smith. What a tale-the godmother of punk and the tortured artist and their life in art. "

    " This book transported me to New York of the 60s and the 70s, and made real the loves and lives of people who lived for art. Patti Smith's relationship with Robert Mapplethorpe was a beautiful and complex thing. An amazing story. I really, really didn't want it to end. "
