A review by xxstefaniereadsxx
The Long Hard Road Out of Hell, by Marilyn Manson, Neil Strauss

dark reflective medium-paced

4.0

 Marilyn Manson has been a controversial figure since he burst onto the music scene. I personally love his voice and music, which is why I bought this book to read. I always thought that the shocking things that he did were just theatrical to his musical persona...but I think he really has some disturbing behavior. I do not like the Nazi imagery at all, and the recent allegations that have been in the press from former girlfriends and wives are something that one cannot ignore. The one thing that people can say about Manson is that he has never really tried to hide what he was. He is always right out there for everyone to see, as weird and abusive as it may be. The book wasn't terribly well written, but delving into the personality of Marilyn Manson was an interesting experience.
