This is for all the Courtney Love/Nirvana Fans, I am actually NOT a Fan, but I figured I'd post this for the other Fans here...



Surprise! Courtney Love is releasing her autobiography this fall. The 288-page Dirty Blonde: The Diaries Of Courtney Love was written as an "impromptu memoir" according to MTV.com, which got a sneak peek at four pages of the book. Far from a traditional biography, Dirty Blonde is a mix of letters, poems, journal entries, song lyrics, fliers from concerts, zines and pictures.

According to MTV.com, the four pages included a 1976 rejection letter from The New Mickey Mouse Club, which Love applied to under the name "Coco Rodriguez," and a school report from 1979 stating that Love "refused to be reasonable" and "became louder and more insistent."

Love writes alongside the various items that she is "a public figure unhappy with my share of the American dream. There can only be one reason for this. I am on drugs, and have the morals and mentality of a cartoon character. What did I want after all??" She also writes extensively about her late husband Kurt Cobain, reminiscing about their time together both good and bad. Of Cobain's March 2004 overdose in Rome, she writes, "Rome was a huge cover-up. I see it now. I just didn't want to see it then. Last night, I re-read the note he left in Rome. It's so obviously a suicide note, so f---ing obvious."

"Here is a unique visual look into a world that is never captured," says Love's literary agent David Vigliano. "It's a one-of-a-kind memoir of an extraordinary life lived by a unique artist." She is expected to do a book tour in selected major cities after its November release. Love has also been working on her next solo record, a follow-up to 2004's America's Sweetheart.

I am not a huge fan, but I am not against her either. I like some of her music, and I think when has it all together she can be very intelligent. This book seems quite interesting. I think I'll buy a copy. That part about Rome and the after thought of his letter is so sad.
