Don't Try This At Home - A year in the life of Dave Navarro

Author(s): Dave Navarro; Neil Strauss

Music Biography

A chronicle of a year in the author's life, this book is a portrait of his descent into drug use, self-destructiveness, and his struggle to find meaning. This book is a diary, a sociology experiment, a documentary of Hollywood, and an exercise in exhibitionism, accompanied by stories, and other glimpses into the lifestyle of a decadent rock star.
