Life by Keith Richards
4.8/5
Life is the memoir of Rolling Stones guitarist and founding member Keith Richards, written with co-author James Fox over a research period of five years. Published in October 2010, it debuted at #1 on the New York Times non-fiction bestseller list and was met with unanimous critical acclaim. The book spans Richards's childhood in Dartford, Kent, through the founding of the Rolling Stones, his complicated friendship and estrangement with Mick Jagger, his relationships with Anita Pallenberg and wife Patti Hansen, his well-documented drug use, and his deep, lifelong devotion to music — from the blues influences of his youth to his work with the X-Pensive Winos and collaborations with Chuck Berry and Gram Parsons.
