Read the translated edition and I have to say it has some wrong information. Some pictures have the wrong caption and I don't know if it is the translator or the author but some pictures from real life are used to describe characters and vice versa.

That was the only not cool thing about the book, and maybe only real fans might get upset about it.

I loved how the writing combines data about Dean's personal life, his characters and the impact they had on society. There is a short description of the symbolism on Rebel Without a Cause about being a teenager/adult.

There is also a few pictures I never saw before and I like how they barely used Stock's photos.
ALso, I might say the book is very short, it left me wanting more because it is a book about Dean's work and not about gossip and so on.
