    About this ebook

    What's it like to be married to the superstar lead singer of the Doors? Patricia Kennealy Morrison gives a loving and detailed account of the pagan handfasting ceremony that bound her forever with the legendary rock superstar Jim Morrison. The intimate portrait of Jim that emerges—a tender and vulnerable face that was shown to very few—makes this book essential reading. The reader has the good fortune of meeting Patricia in the process and empathizing with this smart, deeply spiritual professional woman who has fallen hopelessly in love with a young man whose genius has made him famous and whose demons have made him notorious.
