CHARLES R. CROSS
Monday, September 18 at 7:30 p.m.

Seattle author and journalist Charles R. Cross makes this welcome Elliott Bay return with the paperback of last year's extraordinary biography, Room Full of Mirrors: A Biography of Jimi Hendrix (Hyperion). He does so on the 36th anniversary of the legendary singer/songwriter and Seattle native's death. "A revelation...an excellent portrait, probably unbeatable both for its moving depiction of his youth and thrilling rise to fame and for its myth-busting finality." - Los Angeles Times Book Review. "A more intimate portrait than previous biographies. Cross went to extraordinary lengths to piece together the story. Funny, poignant, provocative and sometimes disturbing." - Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
