The first biography of the musician Elliott Smith, whose heartbreaking songs were rendered all the more haunting by his tragic death Best for his Oscar-nominated song "Miss Misery" from the Good Will Hunting soundtrack, Elliott Smith was catapulted to the status of indie rock star after performing at the 1997 Academy Awards. Some of his albums, XO and Either/Or among them, would become '90s classics, helping to define an understated aesthetic that owed as much to the melodic emphasis of The Beatles as it did to punk. In the afterglow of the success of "Miss Misery," Smith's fame grew-alongside his struggles with depression and substance abuse. First relocating to Brooklyn, and then finally to L.A., he fell into a downward spiral evident to friends and fans alike, even as he continued to write such beautifully realized songs as "Waltz #2 ( XO )." Drawing on new interviews with those who knew and loved Smith, and focusing on the crucial interplay between Smith's life and music, Ben Nugent compellingly and sympathetically portrays an enormously gifted, yet troubled, artist. "Nugent sheds new light on what has previously been perceived as a dark existence.... The author understands the magnificently thick atmosphere of Smith's music intimately, and submerges us in it." - Salon "Nugent did his research and left few stones unturned in telling Smith's relatively short and very sad story." - Chicago Sun-Times
