		It would be wrong for me to say that the songs were written by Curtis under the knowledge that, for him, it was soon to be all over but the second half of the album is filled with an almost universal doom.

		Deborah interestingly sheds light on Ian's strongly held (and very serious) romantic notions of rock'n'roll death and suicide, and expresses her shocking opinion that "he engineered his own hell and planned his own downfall".
		Deborah's discovery of Ian's body in the kitchen of their terraced Macclesfield house - he'd polished off a bottle of whisky and hung himself, Iggy Pop's 'The Idiot' still spinning on the turntable - is sequenced in chilling dreamlike flashback.
		Deborah Curtis gives a balanced account of her life with Ian Curtis that may leave readers reeling at times.

		In a time when new music stars generate instant notoriety; and it seems as of late that a television audience can take a peek "behind the music" before the second album hits the airwaves, its nice to know that some things are still sacred and untouched by mass media's manipulation of reality.
		Enter Deborah Curtis, the widow of Ian Curtis, former singer of Joy Division.
		Curtis' only saving grace is the inclusion of unpublished songs from her late husband's personal letters.

		I don't want to speak for Deborah Curtis because I don’t personally know what she went through, but this message is quite unfair.
		Deborah believed in Ians dream of being in a successful band,I feel that she had to put her side of the story in print to give a full picture to all that a rock stars wife is not always a bed of roses.
		Ian Curtis is an icon, and anyone, no matter how close they are to an icon, will tell a story and often gather criticism..he was a troubled young man whose only real solace and peace was in the music he produced and the words he wrote.

		I'm not sure what I was expecting from this book, but I thought I would get some understanding of how Curtis' family and friends could just stand by and seemingly do nothing while his obvious suicidal tendencies went fatally unchecked.
		If you believe Deborah's account, Ian was almost zombie-like during his last few months, as the strain of his personal problems (a broken marriage, a doomed love affair, and increasingly uncontrollable epilepsy) became unbearable.
		There is one additional thing that I cannot forgive Deborah Curtis for - and that's refusing to publish Ian's suicide note in the book.
