Book Club: Inside Patti Smith’s World

Service95 Book Club’s Monthly Read for September has been the incredible Just Kids by Patti Smith, which recounts the punk poet’s life and relationship with her dear friend Robert Mapplethorpe. Don’t miss our Discussion Guide which includes further insights on Patti herself and the Chelsea Hotel and questions to spark discussion – take it along to your own book club to help you dig a little deeper into the book. Watch Dua and Patti in a heartwarming and intimate conversation about Smith’s life experiences and creative process, plus two exclusive readings by the musician – one from Just Kids and one of a letter she wrote to Robert at the end of his life. There’s also an essay from Patti recounting her and Robert’s relationship, a playlist of songs that soundtracked their time together and a recommended reading list compiled by Patti herself.
