    For the record, Kurt Cobain's "autobiography" was actually a collection of his literal private letters and journal entries published after his death. He did not intend it to be published for all the world to read. I would like to think if Kurt would've written an autobiography it would've had a much more creative title than "Journals".

I do realize celebrity memoirs are not everyone's cup of tea (and that's perfectly fine) but many of the ones I read are actually quite good.
