Acid for the Children: Memorias

Flea's memoir, "Acid for the Children," is a gripping and deeply personal account of his formative years, from Australia to New York City and finally Los Angeles.

Through vivid anecdotes, poetic meditations, and occasional flights of fancy, Flea recounts the story of his life with all its turbulent highs and lows, revealing the experiences that shaped him as an artist, musician, and person.

His prose is dreamy, infused with jazz rhythms, bringing to life the glorious excesses of 70s and 80s Los Angeles, where danger, excitement, chaos, or inspiration lurk around every corner.

It's here that young Flea found his true family among a community of musicians, artists, and misfits living on the city's periphery, spending most of his time at parties and committing minor crimes.

But it was in the music that he truly found solace and purpose, as he discovered his voice and his passion for life.

This is a must-read for any fan of Red Hot Chili Peppers or anyone who loves a good story about the power of music to transform lives.
