| Summary: | Melissa Auf der Maur traces her path from an artistic, bohemian upbringing in Montreal to becoming a key figure in the 1990s alternative rock scene. Immersed in music from a young age, she finds her way into the industry through determination, chance encounters, and a deep passion for art. Her big break leads her to tour with The Smashing Pumpkins before joining Hole at a moment marked by grief and upheaval, performing alongside Courtney Love in the wake of tragedy. Blending memoir, travel diary, and reflection, Melissa offers an intimate, behind-the-scenes look at fame, loss, creativity, and the raw energy of the '90s alternative music world. |
