Kim Gordon is releasing a new book next week

No Icon is described by publisher Rizzoli as "an edgy and evocative visual self-portrait" and a "personally curated scrapbook".

The book will feature a variety of personal material from Gordon's life, including unpublished photographs, magazine and newspaper clippings, fashion editorials, song lyrics, writings, artwork and more.

The new book "Kim Gordon: No Icon" takes an edgy and evocative look at Gordon's life, art, and style, spanning from her childhood on Californian surf beaches to New York's downtown scene in the '80s and '90s where Sonic Youth was born.
