#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A panoramic experience
that tells the story of Beastie Boys, a book as unique as the band
itself—by band members ADROCK and Mike D, with contributions from Amy
Poehler, Colson Whitehead, Wes Anderson, Luc Sante, and more.The inspiration for the Emmy-nominated Apple TV+ “live documentary” Beastie Boys Story, directed by Spike Jonze
“A fascinating, generous book with portraits and detail that float
by in bursts of color . . . As with [the band’s] records, the book’s
structure is a lyrical three-man weave. . . . Diamond’s voice is
lapidary, droll. Horovitz comes on like a borscht belt comedian, but
beneath that he is urgent, incredulous, kind of vulnerable. . . .
Friendship is the book’s subject as much as music, fame and New York.”—The New York Times Book Review
