Acid for the Children: A Memoir

Flea's Acid for the Children is a raw, riveting memoir that takes readers on a deeply personal tour of his formative years.

With dreamy, jazz-inflected prose, Flea brings to life the Los Angeles of the 1970s and 80s, where he found family in a community of musicians, artists, and junkies who lived on the fringe.

Through hilarious anecdotes, poetical meditations, and occasional flights of fantasy, Flea chronicles his experiences as an artist, musician, and young man, revealing the potential for fun, danger, mayhem, or inspiration that lurked around every corner.

This is a tenderly evocative coming-of-age story and a raucous love letter to the power of music and creativity from one of the most renowned musicians of our time.
