I think that a lot of single mothers have that relationship with their children, and especially if you're not wealthy and you have to work.

And her convergence with Warhol was just one of those uncanny moments on the streets of New York at that time in the '60s that could happen, that could probably no longer ever happen again. And I think she just is who she is, so I don't think she thought about it like, 'I want to be a celebrity' or 'I'm a celebrity.' She really was just living as she lived.

In this wickedly honest and unsparing account of a journey through the music world, 'Black Postcards' captures what has happened, for good and ill, to the entire ecosystem of popular music from someone who's been there. 'Black Postcards' is a must-have for Wareham' s many fans, anyone who has ever been in a band, or the listeners who have taken an interest in the indie rock scene over the last twenty years. It captures, unsparingly, what has happened to the entire ecosystem of popular music over a time of radical change, when categories such as 'indie' and 'alternative' meant nothing to those creating the music, but everything to the major labels willing to pay for it. Now he brings us the blunt, heartbreaking, and wickedly charismatic account of his personal journey through the music world-the artistry and the hustle, the effortless success and the high living, as well as the bitter pills and self-inflicted wounds. A bewitching memoir about the lures, torments, and rewards of making and performing music in the indie rock world Dean Wareham' s seminal bands Galaxie 500 and Luna have long been adored by a devoted cult following and extolled by rock critics.
