Negative Positive
Title: Biased
Review: This biography is serviceable however, it it clearly biased. The author loses all journalistic credibility when he partners with and becomes too personally involved with SV's mother. He sanitizes the truth, minimizes the facts and attempts to validate a mother's misguided memory of a troubled son. It is a chronicle of a mother, her love and a fan's need to connect with a part of his youth. For a more unbiased retelling of the era one should turn to "England's Dreaming" by Jon Savage. I also highly recommend the film "The Filth and the Fury".
