Wonderland Avenue: Tales of Glamour and Excess by Danny Sugerman
Wonderland Avenue was the name of Danny Sugerman's street in Los Angeles and is apt for the author's most surreal adventures. This account picks up where No-one Here Gets Out Alive left off, describing life in the Door's entourage. Tales of young adulthood and near delinquency of his childhood are seen to have primed him for excess. He talks about drug and alcohol abuse which had left Sugerman, still barely in his twenties, only days away from death. It covers his stay in a psychiatric hospital, coming to terms with the death of his friend Jim Morrison, years of dope-dealing, night-clubbing and relationships with women.
