Courtney Love Opens Her Diary
A preview of Courtney Love’s forthcoming book includes poetry, journal entries, never-before-seen photos, and new glimpses into her life with late husband Kurt Cobain.
The four-page excerpt from “Dirty Blonde: The Diaries of Courtney Love” showed the “impromptu memoir” to contain a variety of childhood records, personal notes and pages straight from Love’s diary, according to MTV. Through one such entry, Love reminisces about her relationship with Cobain shortly after his suicide.
“Exactly one month ago today was the last time I made love with my husband,” she writes in an entry dated April 17, 2004. “I cooked him dinner. We spent four hours in the playroom with Frances. We saw ‘Schindler’s List.’ It made us frightened for life and we saw the value of life. Our convictions we defined until 4 a.m. and we fell asleep in each other’s arms and woke up that way in the morning.”
“Here is a unique visual look into a world that is never captured,” said Love’s literary agent, David Vigliano. “It’s a one-of-a-kind memoir of an extraordinary life lived by a unique artist.”
The book, which was researched and edited by Ava Stander, is slated for release in November.
