《此地无人生还》的畅销使摇滚传记开始成为出版界一种新类型的书
记者从江苏人民出版社获悉，国外第一本完整而权威的美国60年代摇滚乐队“大门”传奇歌手吉姆·莫里森传记《此地无人生还》已被引进，中译本将于8月面市。而之前的鲍勃·迪伦回忆录中译本《像一块滚石》引进出版7个月以来，已经销售了1.5万册，这让出版社决定推出一系列西方歌手传记。
畅销一时开创出版界新类型
《此地无人生还》由摇滚文化与流行文化专家杰里·霍普金斯与“大门”乐队的核心工作人员丹尼·苏格曼共同完成，首版于1980年问世。当即就登上了《纽约时报》畅销书榜首，并且停留了9个月之久。这是与摇滚有关的传记作品第一次获得这样长久持续的成功。从此，摇滚传记开始成为出版界一种新类型的书。
斯通参考该书拍摄《乐火焚城》

一幅光明与阴影交织的肖像
在逮捕拘役的丑闻与演艺生涯的辉煌之下，吉姆·莫里森真实的形象却日渐模糊，他的真正才华与灵感也没有得到完整全面的认识。
翻译董楠认为本书将莫里森作为一个普通人来描述，并没有把他抬上神坛，而是如实地描述了一幅光明与阴影交织的肖像———受到媒体恶评的时候有孩子气的嫉恨，在…… 阅读全文 (1122字)

As I Look Back
As I look back
over my life
I am struck by post
cards
Ruined Snap shots
faded posters
Of a time, I can't recall

I am a Scot, or so
I'm told. Really

Snake in the Glen
The child of a

I rebelled against church
after phases of
fervor
I curried favor in school
& attack'd the teachers
I was given a
desk in the corner
I was a fool

Walks in D.C. in
Negro streets. The library

The books & poets magic
Then sex gives greater stimulation
Than you've ever known &
all peace & books lose their
charm & you are thrown
back on the eye of vision

Roof top songs
early struggles &

Elvis had sex-wise

Mine still retains the
nasal whine of a
repressed adolescent
minor squeaks & furies
An interesting singer
at best-a scream
or a sick croon. Nothing
in-between.
