Stories I Only Tell My Friends - Rob Lowe - A Short Summary and Review

Tortured Artists: From Picasso and Monroe to Warhol and Winehouse, the Twisted Secrets of the World's Most Creative Minds - Christopher Zara - A Short Summary & Review

A short summary of the book Tortured Artists:

The life and times of the best "crazy" artists.

My favorite Christopher Zara quote from the book:

"I've always believed that all great art comes from pain."




Questions to ponder while reading the book:

Is correlation the same as causation?

Must you be crazy to have talent?

My review of Tortured Artists:

I don't know that I completely disagree.

(still, it was a great read about the topic)
