Book Reviews of Light My Fire
Book Review: ultra candid, disorganized, multiple themes
Summary: 5 Stars
Please dont read this review unless you are unsure of buying this book!
First lets talk about the cons:
- Disorgnized (throws various unconnected ideas in different places)
- Multiple Themes (Some might have difficulty understanding the themes that Ray dabbles in and find this painful)
- Very black and
white descriptions of people
pros:
- Unbelievably frank and very personal
- Very insightful into Jim's personality
- Beautiful ideas such as self discovery, living life for what its worth, being the creator of existence.
- Some superb use of words such as "aural orgasm"
- Hard hitting, almost like a mind f***
Tough to summarize this book but its a collectors item. Loved it to the core. This is by no means a book about truth nor do I believe Ray was trying to get to the actual truth. He is just conveying his ideas/thoughts/experiences. This is definitely not a book if one just wants the facts and timeline. Its one for the open minded.
