La Reina del punk, by Susana Hernández.
In the musical background of the late seventies, punk begins to reign in the most alternative venues and Nancy Spungen is willing to do anything not to miss this moment and to make effective the saying “live fast, die young and leave a beautiful corpse.” A music journalist decides to investigate the life and death of Nancy Spungen, Sid Vicious’ partner, who died in strange circumstances at the Chelsea Hotel.
Her research, and the knowledge she brings to the details of the life of someone who was the companion of one of the icons of punk, runs parallel to events from her own life. The story that has given rise to a mystery and also to one of the rock legends that has inspired films and documentaries of strong impact such as Who Killed Nancy?, by Alan G. Parker or Sid and Nancy by director Alex Cox.
Editor’s Review
A vibrant novel written in two voices about one of the most controversial cursed rock legends. What really happened between the punk rocker and the Sex Pistols muse?
Fascinante, vibrante y por momentos esclarecedora, sí, lo que cuenta Susana bien podría haber ocurrido.
