From the late 1980s until his death in 1994, Kurt Cobain kept a record of his innermost thoughts about his life and career in a series of dime-store notebooks. Brimming with lyrics, drawings, writings, lists of favorite songs, production notes,and letters to fellow musicians, friends and family members, more than twenty of these notebooks survived the tumultuous events of Cobain’s life. Safeguarded since his death, they have not been seen by the public until now. The most remarkable excerpts from these notebooks have been gathered together in Kurt Cobain’s Journals. Presented in full-color facsimile format, they reveal Cobain’s uncensored views about fame, Nirvana, his public image and his place in music history. They include new disclosures about his health problems and drug use, and blunt assessments of the artists he respected and of those in the media he despised. Cobain shares his deepest and most private thoughts about his sex life and his politics, his unabashed love for his wife and daughter, his bitter critiques of the music business and right-wing politics, and his doubts about his own creativity and ambition. Together, these journal entries create an extraordinary portrayal of the personal and professional evolution of the most compelling musician of his time, and of a distinctive era in American popular culture.

The Journals offer an unprecedented portrait of Kurt Cobain as he was during the most important period of his life, day to day and year to year, in his own vibrant words and drawings. Although all the facets of his unique personality are on brilliant display, the reader’s overriding impression is of Cobain’s passion—for his life, his music, and the people he loved: “a built in, totally spiritual, unexplainable, New Age, fucking, cosmic energy bursting love for passion” (p. 174).
