No One Here Gets Out Alive

Plot

The bestselling biography of Jim Morrison. Here is Jim Morrison in all his complexity-- singer, philosopher, poet, delinquent -- the brilliant, charismatic and obsessed disciple of darkness who rejected authority in any form, the explorer who probed "the bounds of reality to see what would happen..." Seven years in the writing, this definitive biography is the work of two men whose empathy and experience with Jim Morrison uniquely prepared them to recount this modern tragedy: Jerry Hopkins, whose famous Presley biography, ELVIS, was inspired by Morrison's suggestion, and Danny Sugerman, confidant of and aide to the Doors. Together they tell the story of a genius who shot like a rocket across the musical horizon, then in burning fragments as his life went out of control.
