A Stoners' Memoir

Michiko Kakutani penned a lovely, in-depth description of Rolling Stone guitarist Keith Richards' memoir, "Life". The article, located here, gives a detailed look into the once troubled rock-star's past, and offers readers explanations for many choices and accounts of the consequences of those choices.

As a Rolling Stones fan, I am very excited about this book. I believe that Richards is at the perfect age and point in his life to write such a book. It is important for there to be an accurate account of the life of clean and sober, influential rock musician. The rehabilitated Keith Richards is able to describe things that he has lived through that could possibly make an impression on younger musicians.

I think that the book will be a fun, insightful read, and I look forward to reading it.
