	Yeah, I read the Cobain Journals book. To me, it was interesting for the early/working versions of lyrics. Plus there's a really hilarious plan he had written up for the dual release (think Albini's original mixes and 8-track!) of the In Utero album. As for bios, I'm reading one on Che Guevara right now.

	Read a great biography on Robert Capa the war photographer a few months ago. Amazing stories, womanizing, hob nobbing with heads of state and famous authors, drinking, gambling and of course the horrors of war. Quite the read.

	The Salmon of Doubt was a bit of a bio. Not bad, if a bit disheartening.

There is a blurb by Richard Dawkins in my copy of The Salmon of Doubt which does wonderful justice to a life lost so young. Tragic.

I'm not really one for Biographies, but Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and Lila, by Robert Pirsig, are quasi-autobiographical.
