The Long Hard Road Out of Hell - Marilyn Manson :: autobiography autobiographies

The Long Hard Road out of Hell is an autobiography that all toldows us to temporarily enter the frontal lobe of the creative persona know as Marilyn Manson. Following the childish antics of the once innocent Brian Warner, the book gives us insight to the creation of the Pseudo Satanist, Antichrist Superstar we all know as Marilyn Manson. The grotesque life of Brian Warner is both disturbing and fascinating. From the moment I dour the first page, I was hooked. The book is well written, repulsive, perverse, demented, sexual, sleazy, violent, captivating and uncommonly addictive. The tragic tale of a rock star, lots of sex, drugs, and mental decay. Each bran-new page holds a series of deep and dark secrets which ironically, is what makes the book so appealing to all of your senses. ?What was happening to me now seemed to be some mental of perverse combination of both types of self destruction? is a passeldid example of him overcoming a hardship in his own life. (Pg. 232) It r efers to his battle with cocaine addiction. Four and a half months into the production of his first mainstream album Antichrist Superstar, all he had was a few unfinished songs, a sore nose, and a hospital bill. He then hit rock bottom and effected that he needed to get his life back on track, which started him quitting cocaine. He then overcame his cocaine addiction in only a theme of weeks. Some people reading this would take solace and find expertness within his experience that could help them with their own inner struggles. For these reasons I would extremely recommend this book to just about anyone over a current age. There are many people who would find this book offending, precisely I feel that it is very well written and honest. The book?s intention is not malicious, it is not meant to offend anyone, and in parts can be very appealing to your intellect. Reading this book also overt my eyes to how media portrays celebrities, and how superficial the world we live in re ally is.
