- Rock musicians, Biography, Nirvana (Musical group), Cobain, kurt, 1967-1994
The art of Nirvana's Kurt Cobain was all about his private life, but written in a code as obscure as T.S. Eliot's. Now Charles Cross has cracked the code in the definitive biography Heavier Than Heaven, an all-access pass to Cobain's heart and mind.
