"Jim Morrison's poetic vision, electrifying live performances, and voracious appetite for sexual, spiritual, and psychedelic experience inflamed the spirit and psyche of a generation. During his scorching rise to stardom as the lead singer of the Doors in the 1960s, his voice and lyrics reached out to the darkest thoughts and most passionate desires of fans around the world." "In Jim Morrison, critically acclaimed journalist Stephen Davis brings together insights gleaned from dozens of original interviews, long-lost recordings, and Morrison's own unpublished journals to create a vivid portrait of a misunderstood genius. Davis looks behind the masks of the Lizard King and Mr. Mojo Risin' to reveal a man of fierce intelligence and poetic ambition who was tortured by inner demons that controlled his creative furies and drove him to confrontation and self-destruction. Each page brims with new details that yield fresh perspective on every phase of Morrison's life, from his troubled youth in a strict military household to his coming of age in the avant-garde scene of 1960s L.A. to the tense atmosphere surrounding the Doors as their songs rocketed to the top of the charts - when Morrison's increasingly fractious relations with his bandmates, his epic alcohol and drug binges, and desperate, tumultuous sexual affairs (with both women and men) reached their frenzied peak. And in a final chapter, Davis synthesizes new evidence recently uncovered in Paris to resolve at last many of the mysteries surrounding Morrison's death, and reconstructs the final days and hours of America's greatest rock star."--Jacket.
