Originally published as two separate volumes in 1969, Jim Morrison’s first published volume of poetry gives a revealing glimpse of an era and the man whose songs and savage performances have left an indelible impression on our culture.

Intense, erotic, and enigmatic, Jim Morrison’s persona is as riveting now as the lead singer/composer “Lizard King” was during The Doors’ peak in the late sixties. His fast life and mysterious death remain controversial more than twenty years later.

The Lords and the New Creatures, Morrison’s first published volume of poetry, is an uninhibited exploration of society’s dark side—drugs, sex, fame, and death—captured in sensual, seething images. Here, Morrison gives a revealing glimpse at an era and at the man whose songs and savage performances have left their indelible impression on our culture.

I gave this book to my fiancé as a gift because he is a huge The Doors fan, and I started reading just out of curiosity about his poetry because I’ve seen their biopic and found it very interesting. For those of you who don’t know, Jim Morrison was known to be high pretty much all the time and reading this book is exactly how I felt… some of it is poetry and most of it feels like random thoughts and point of view of daily moments of a person who’s been tripping hard. More often than not it’s a confuse reading but still worth it to be on someone’s TBR.
