Being a rock n roll fan, i was familiar with the 27 club - Jones, Hendrix, Joplin, Cobain and Winehouse. (and since i love blues - new of Robt Johnson as well). However, the author has expanded the 27 club (or at least done the research and identified) with many more members, drawing primarily upon the arts. None of the bios or portrayals is very detailed (there are excellent existing biographies of many of these artists), but it does provide an introduction and starting point for further reading.… (altro)
A collection of famous people who have died at the age of 27. Short bios accompanying each celebrity are included but only scratch the surface. I’m not sure who this book is for since no real conclusions are reached.

An interesting and enjoyable look into celebrity deaths at the age of 27. I had heard of this 'curse' previously, but was unaware of just how many talented individuals had their lives cut short.
