is generously illustrated in this full-color edition of her classic coming-of-age memoir Just
Kids. New York locations vividly come to life where as young artists Patti Smith and Robert

Yoko's iconic billboard Max's Kansas City or the gritty fire escape of the Hotel Chelsea. The
extraordinary people who passed through their lives are also pictured: Sam Shepard Harry Smith
William Burroughs Allen Ginsberg. Along with never-before-published photographs drawings and
ephemera this edition captures a moment in New York when everything was possible. And when two
kids seized their destinies as artists and soul mates in this inspired story of love and
friendship.
