Opis

For many, the undisputed queen of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll, Janis Joplin was also the voice of a generation who, when she overdosed on heroin at the age of 27, became the posthumous icon of bad girl femininity for millions around the world. Drawing on hundreds of interviews this biography aims to render Joplin in all her complexity, revealing how this sweet-voiced girl from Texas recreated herself, first as a gravelly-voiced bluesy folksinger, and then as rock 'n' roll's first female superstar.
