It's very exciting to follow the path of an artist even if it is filled with lots of misery and people with addiction problems and there are a ton of names mentioned in most of the pages. There were so many people here I did not know, maybe I will bother sometime to check them all. It was exciting to hear some of the names that I do know.

Was a vibe to read the ending as the new year ended ☠️☠️

I feel a bit ashamed that I did not know that such a non-conformist icon existed decades before I was born. The world did not get that much cooler, huh, or maybe I still am missing artists, names who would speak my language in the contemporary world, I have seen some, but I am always hungry for more. There are so many I am missing.

It is very inspiring to hear how much Patti gave up to do her art and to follow it. Living for art seems so reckless yet desirable and for a lot of us not a choice, but a way of life. I follow art, I am too unstable to settle and would get bored too easily any other way.

She is so iconic for elevating her favourite poets the way she did.
