| R.I.P Jim Carroll
Gay  http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/20...ocker-is-dead/ Quote:
Jim Carroll, the poet and punk rocker in the outlaw tradition of Rimbaud and Burroughs who chronicled his wild youth in The Basketball Diaries, died Friday at his home in Manhattan. He was 60. The cause was a heart attack, said Rosemary Carroll, his former wife.
As a teenage basketball star in the 1960s at Trinity, an elite private school on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, Mr. Carroll led a chaotic life that combined sports, drugs and poetry. This highly unusual combination lent a lurid appeal to The Basketball Diaries, the journal he kept during high school and published in 1978, by which time his poetry had already won him a cult reputation as the new Bob Dylan.

I wonder if Jim Carroll would be pleased that some people's abiding memory of him is Leo Di Caprio banging the blonde twins from Sweet Valley High. Also, this death means that Kim Gordon is now one rung higher on the New York art-cool ladder. Boo death! | |
