Riassunto

Punk has been romanticised and embalmed by the media. A youth revolt that became a worldwide fashion statement, punk s idols were the Sex Pistols and Johnny Rotten was its sneering antichrist. Rotten is a history of punk: angry, witty, poignant and crackling with energy. Malcolm McLaren, Sid Vicious, the 1970s, the Pistols story are all here, in one of the best books ever written about youth culture, by one of its most notorious figures.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

'Rotten... captures the rancid flavour of Lydon's punk and pre-punk life... a good read' --The Guardian, January 31, 2004

‘Lydon’s story is one of struggle and an almost foolhardy courage... for sheer eye-of-the-storm authenticity, this is hard to beat.' --Kerrang!, January 24, 2004

‘This autobiography remains – ten years since it was first written – a nihilistic, gross-out masterpiece.’ --NME, January 24, 2004

L'autore:

John Lydon still performs and tours with the Sex Pistols. He also records and performs both as a solo artist and with PiL (Public Image Limited). He lives in California.
