"Please Kill Me" is a collection of true scandalous stories from people directly involved in the events, reflecting the process of formation, heyday and agony of the American punk scene, starting from the mid-sixties, the explosive activity of Andy Warhol's "Factory" and "Velvet" Underground”, passing the rock and roll scumbags “MC5” and “The Stooges” Iggy Pop, the frenzied poets Patti Smith and Richard Hell, the outrageousness of the “New York Dolls”, the drive of the Ramones and ending with the art provocations of Malcolm McLaren and the tragedy of Sid Vicious. The documentary novel is a “progress report” in the spirit of “sex, drugs and rock and roll”, a story about bright crazy lives and early untimely departures, unprecedented ups and equally rapid falls. As Yegor Letov said: “This book should definitely be on the table of all of us.” Here are collected the craziest, most shocking stories that can be stuffed under the cover of a story about real sex, drugs and rock-n-roll. It captures the frantic energy of the New York scene... It's a candid, detailed inside look.
