The author claims a new kind of fiction called Autobiographical Novel. Burn Down the Night. And light up an era with the neon, mind-splitting sound of rock, the fast and furious sex, the drugs, pills and needles, joints and sugar cubes --- life blood and lifeline of a generation that was. Descend into the orgies with death, with jokers and madmen, California ladies, child-women groupies, the bands and the billyclubs, on Craig Strete's rocket ride with Jim Morrison into the stoned cold frenzy that was the sixties. You may never be so insane again. "You and me, they are really going to dig us when we're dead. You can't hope to arrive without exile." --- Jim Morrison.
