Title: such good writers!
Review: I can honestly say that the writing (the reviews) I regularly read on amazon.com are better than the writing within this "biography". It really is a disgusting book. The most valuable thing about the book was that I found out about some songs I'd previously not heard, and was able to look out for them (and find them later on basementdemos). His speculation about lyrical content (not to mention on what Elliot was thinking) is often ridiculous. And one truly gets the feeling that this man has absolutely no insight into the character or life of Elliot Smith (so he makes it up). I really could go on and on in this vein. I'm glad Elliot's friend and family refused to be interviewed: this man is NOT Elliot Smith's biographer. I give it one star because after reading it, I do know more about Smith, not much though.
