Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

And she fits in with that.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

And I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but it can go with some American rock bands into pomposity and into sort of cliche where it's just also terribly my art.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

Just have a drink, forget about it, love.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

But that seriousness breeds a lot of...

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

The hangers-on.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

And you can see why those rock stars, sometimes it gets more extreme and they go quite mental because they're enabled by all that middle management hanging on, go, you are so important, you are so serious, you're a cultural icon, you are a voice of a nation.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

And that's why they go really, really mental, where I think we're better at keeping ourselves in check.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

Ooh, I've had a bit of a funny time, a bit famous.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

I'll have a sit down rather than go and do something a little bit heinous like Americans do.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

Poor thing.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

It could have been worse.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

It could have been worse.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

Look at what other people are writing about.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

But if she hadn't demanded to be taken seriously, if she'd taken that out, she wouldn't have had a book out.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

She wouldn't have pushed to have this out.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

And this is a really important book.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

And it's a precursor for so much that went after it that you go, all right, OK, I get it.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

It's fine then.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

Yeah, it's fine.

Talk โ€™90s to me
Prozac Nation! โ€“ How one grunge-era depression memoir changed everything

Yeah, but it does anyway.
