'''All I Need Is Love:A Memoir''' is the autobiography of actor [[Klaus Kinski]].
The autobiography by little known actor Klaus Kinski provides an in-depth look into the psyche of a performing artist. Born into poverty in Poland, Kinski was forced into the WW II German army at 16 and taken a prisoner of war. Later, he more or less drifted into acting. About halfway through, the book becomes a story of the search for love (or sex). Twice Kinski finds his goal, but both times it ends disasterously. This is an emotionally powerful, memorable read.

The book is written entirely in the present tense, and rarely gives temporal references. It is divided into five sections.

Chapter 1 describes his early life up to his discovery of sex and his outrageous desire for it. Chapter Two deals with his short career in the military, his first theatre experiences and successes, his entrance into an insane asylum. The third chapter deals with his comeback. Chapter Five deals with his marriage.

The book was written originally in German, and was reissued under the title '''Uncut'''.
