Book Reviews of Chelsea Horror Hotel: A Novel
Book Review: "Little Dee Dee's Big Book of Drug Stories"
Summary: 4 Stars
OK, DeeDee is no James Joyce, but I think the other reviewers are being a bit hard on him and going into this with expectations that are a way too high. Give the guy a break, he's a Ramone and he writes like one. I thought it was fun after reading something like "Please Kill Me" by Legs McNeil. Dee Dee's childish style is sort of endearing and it reads like a punk rock William Burroughs when you get to the drug induced hallucinations. Basically, DeeDee is trapped in the Chelsea Hotel and keeps having heroin trips involving Sid Vicious and Johnny Thunders who want him to join their band (overdose? ok so it is obvious in parts :) His various encounters with the other characters are amusing. Its hard to believe the Chelsea was such a dump (it was) when they try to be so posh now.
