In \u003ci\u003eThe Lizard King\u003c\/i\u003e, Jerry Hopkins reassesses Jim Morrison's life and provides fresh insights into this powerful and troubled talent, considering him as a human being rather than the myth he has become. At the heart of the book is a series of interviews with Morrison by journalists Ben Fong-Torres, John Tobler, Richard Goldstein, and others. Published uncut, they present a previously unseen Morrison: articulate, intelligent, witty, even self-deprecating. Hopkins includes updates on the people the \"erotic politician\" left behind.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Plexus Publishing, Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47018730979568,"sku":"9780859654401","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780859654401_p0.jpg?v=1763825372","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780859654401","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
