Riverhead Books co-editorial director Julie Grau recently told Billboard that the full color book will be presented as �a replica of his notebook pages�.  

�We have excised any thought of editorial intrusion. This is pure, unadulterated, Kurt Cobain,� said Grau of the forthcoming book. 

In total, Cobain�s journals reportedly consist of 800 pages and this new book will contain every page taken from 23 notebooks that include his writings and drawings. According to Amazon.com the list price of the volume will be $26.95 but they are taking preorders for the book for just $18.87.
