Through prose that shifts fluidly between dreams and reality, past and present and across a landscape of creative aspirations and inspirations,we travel to Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul in Mexico; to a meeting of an Arctic explorer's society in Berlin; to a ramshackle seaside bungalow in New York's Far Rockaway that Smith acquires just before Hurricane Sandy hits; and to the graves of Genet, Plath, Rimbaud and Mishima. Woven throughout are reflections on the writer's craft and on artistic creation.Here,too,are singular memories of Smith's life in Michigan and the irremediable loss of her husband,Fred Sonic Smith. Braiding despair with hope and consolation,illustrated with her signature Polaroids,'M Train' is a meditation on travel,detective shows,literature,and coffee.It is a powerful,deeply moving book by one of the most remarkable multiplatform artists at work today. About the author: Patti Smith is a writer,performer and visual artist. She gained recognition in the 1970s for her revolutionary merging of poetry and rock.She has released twelve albums,including 'Horses',which has been hailed as one of the top one hundred albums of all time by Rolling Stone magazine.
