PDF The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star by Nikki Sixx in Arts-Photography

Description

In one of the most unique memoirs of addiction ever published; Mouml;tley Cruuml;es 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 Mouml;tley Cruuml;e was at the height of its fame; there wasnt any drug Nikki Sixx wouldnt 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 Nikkis 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.
