- Reviewed in Canada on April 13, 2024Verified PurchaseBought as a gift for a die hard Manson fan. Was told they loved the book
- Reviewed in Canada on December 30, 2016Verified PurchaseI am not a fan of Marilyn Manson, nor do I subscribe to his preferred lifestyle and beliefs. However, I came across this book on recommendation by a trusted friend. The cover alone almost scared me away. Regardless, I pushed on and only a few pages in, I couldn't put the book down. It was not only one of the BEST rock star biographies that I have ever read but one of the BEST books I've read PERIOD (and I read a lot of books). Intelligent, heartbreaking, inspiring, and overall entertaining. A must read!

Reviewed in Canada on October 1, 2018Verified PurchaseWhen you start, you finish it. Faut avoir l’esprit ouvert et laisser ses jugements, les ouïs-dires de côté. Très intéressant. C’est pas un livre pour le traditionnel «hater» de MM, ou peut-être, pour lui faire réaliser que ses idées préconçues sont passées dates. Très heureuse de mon achat. Tout un personnage. Facile à lire en anglais, pour les francophones.
- Reviewed in Canada on August 4, 2018Verified PurchaseThe last 50-60 pages are really good. The first 200 pages are repetitive and somewhat boring. However, those last 50-60 pages are so good that they make up for the first 200 pages. Like they are really really really good. Life-changing good.
- Reviewed in Canada on September 9, 2020Verified PurchaseArrived on time. I used to have this book but lent it out and never got it back. Have read it 2 or 3 times and love it so much that I bought it again.
- Reviewed in Canada on December 15, 2016Verified PurchaseI like to read about peoples lives, but found this a bit too much. Very crude in my mind.

5.0 out of 5 stars A lire impérativement si on s'intéresse à M.M.
Verified PurchaseJ'ai adoré ce livre qui nous fait découvrir l'enfance et la genèse de l'artiste, du personnage Marilyn Manson. On comprend mieux ce qu'il est, ce qu'il représente, ce qu'il pourfend, et pourquoi. Brian Warner a eu l'audace et le courage de raconter des choses vraiment très personnelles et parfois peu reluisantes à propos de lui et de sa famille. Peut-être une thérapie pour lui ? Pour le lecteur, en tout cas, la rencontre tout simplement avec un être humain, qui a ses défauts, ses faiblesses et ses névroses, comme nous tous, et qui ose les regarder en face et les avouer malgré sa célébrité. Ce livre ne laissera personne indifférent. Brian Warner est né pour provoquer, avec sa musique et ses performances comme avec ses mots. Moralisateurs et Saintes-Nitouches s'abstenir !
