i've been searching for this book in stores since last may when i say it on my favorite professor's desk. then i saw it when i was in san francisco, and finally today i own it. having just come to paperback, this is the tale of love, friendship, and growing up. i haven't even started, and already i feel like i may be entering the perfect world of artistic and creative goodness.
Smith's evocative, honest, and moving coming-of-age story reveals her extraordinary relationship with artist Robert Mapplethorpe. Part romance, part elegy, "Just Kids" is about friendship in the truest sense, and the artist's calling.
can't wait to get reading!
