3.0
Wealth of images, I appreciated the essays and the year-by-year overview (haven't read anything on him before).
Not as impressed with the book design, there's a side flap and it was ripped in a good number of the ones I received (had ordered multiple copies for a work project). I ended up just taking it off on my copy so it wouldn't aggravate me constantly.

SPOILER FREE
I liked this book!
I am a big fan of Jean-Michel Basquiat and his work so I went into this book with a fair amount of knowledge about him. However, even with that there was still quite a bit of new information, perspective, and stories about Basquiat for me to read about. I liked that the book was divided by his artistic periods, and the prints of his work included in this book were very high quality (I even used them as references for an art project back in high school). So if you like Basquiat or would like to know more about him, I highly recommend this book!
