「前方的道路將會崎嶇艱難，我不知道它通往何方，但我還是踏上這條路。眼前即將出現一個奇怪的世界，亂雲罩頂，閃電頻傳。那個世界，許多人不理解，也從來沒能弄懂。我卻直直走了進去。那是個寬廣的世界。」這本自傳的結尾這樣寫。今日世人知道，那個寬廣的世界，會因為巴布．狄倫直直走了進來而得到改變。 狄倫的歌聲如此美國：寬大、認真、充滿理想，節奏感十足。狄倫所說的故事如此引起共鳴：憤怒、慧黠、辛辣、純潔、批判、傷感。那樣的狄倫，是如何形成的？他的自傳將會給出答案。 在自傳第一部曲《搖滾記》中，狄倫回顧了人生幾個重大轉折。讀者跟著他的步伐，從故鄉明尼蘇達州來到紐約曼哈頓，看見1961年的格林威治村，經歷烏茲塔克事件。 讀者看見狄倫帶著對民謠的熱愛來到紐約，儘可能尋找表演的機會，但他只唱自己想唱的歌。他聆聽各種民謠並欣賞其他歌手；他閱讀思想經典，因為詩而震撼，因為故事而感動。幾段戀情隨風而逝，幾個朋友終生維持情誼。 在傷逝的情懷之中，狄倫追記往事，情景鮮明，歷歷如昨。有時敘情，有時寫景；有時詩意，有時熱情。《搖滾記》承載了巴布?狄倫對於一個非凡時代所懷抱的情感，呈現了一顆誠實的藝術心靈，讓世人更深入思索狄倫對世界的影響。

The Long Hard Road Out of Hell is the autobiography of Marilyn Manson, leader of the shock rock band Marilyn Manson. The book (written with the help of Neil Strauss of Rolling Stone Magazine), follows Manson's life from when he was a child, and was born as Brian Hugh Warner. It also details of his grandfather's sexual fetishes (including bestiality and sadomasochism) to the forming of Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids, to the recording of Antichrist Superstar. Its last pages are the journal of the band's touring, documenting backstage events and people's reactions. The book itself includes many references to his life of drugs, sex and dysfunctional relationships that led him to where he is now. The autobiography also goes in-depth into the break-ups amongst the band's history. It follows several members through becoming friends and musicians with the band to angry and sometimes bitter leavings, some band members detested being fired so badly that lawsuits have been filed against Manson by his own crew members. Along with the book are numerous pictures, some of which are familiar to long-time Manson fans, with the center pages including everything from the Slasher Girls to Manson performing Antichrist Superstar with a Bible in his hand. Also scattered throughout the pages are numerous pictures of the human anatomy and also documents of such things as girlfriends, legal documents of false claims made by the American Family Society about his shows, and band landmarks, to the rarer, such as Manson with Anton Szandor LaVey. ____from wikipedia
