This is a memoir by Marianne Faithfull, recounting her days in the swinging '60s. She recalls her love and life with Mick Jagger, how Bob Dylan wooed her, the Rolling Stones courted her and finally, how drugs trapped her into a world where nothing else mattered but the next fix.

Very good book full of personality and humour , loved all the parts about the 60s the rolling stones and the lifestyle they all led , some times bit muddled and contradictory so your left slightly confused about what went wrong with the relationship and was sad that she seemed almost determined to be as into drugs as possible at any cost.

Very honest even if it showed her in a bad light and have to remember how young they all actually were. Came across as very likable person in spite of everything. This book is interesting, she had a mad, mad life.. I read it in 4 days.. I skipped her life as a small child cos I just wanted to read about the sex, drugs and rocknroll!!

One person found this helpful. Felt compelled to read the Kate Moss story Wow - what a life this lady has had. Knew her for the Rolling Stones connection but had no idea about all her hardships and struggles. Worth reading. I loved this book, even though I questioned many things about it. A lot of it doesn't make any sense, a lot of it sounds mental, but the story draws you in and keeps you riveted until the end.

A very unusual strange life story of a very unusual woman. Insightful, truthful doesn't pull any punches enough to put anyone off drugs a bit depressing and very self centered in parts but it is about Marianne. Excellent tale of 60s and 70s excess from someone who was at the very centre of it all. See more reviews. Readability Authenticity.
