| | Janis Joplin Biography |
 | | On the surface, she seemed the perfect icon for stardom in the late Sixties: She fit no standard of beauty yet exuded a raw sensuality that mirrored a movement which rejected societal standards by creating its own. | | | Her kind of beauty can only be captured in its natural state -- candidly or in performance. | | | Young people flocked to the Bay area as if to Mecca by the thousands, searching for identity, reason, justification, maybe just something as simple as acceptance. |

| | Although the personal insights I gleaned through Janis' letters was revealing and poignant, this bio was far from the no-punches-pulled treatment that the book jacket claims it is. Read it only as an account of a younger sister trying to come to terms with the troubled life and early death of a beloved older sister. | | | Blues singer Janis Joplin, who died of a heroin overdose in 1970 at the age of 27, is recalled here by her sister, who seems as square as Janis was hip. | | | Her straightforward look at Janis's life, which includes chatty letters from Janis to her family, provides some insight into Janis's formative years. |
