Publisher's Synopsis
Among the many musicians who have molded the music scene, few whose voices really speak to the human experience as Joni Mitchell's does. Her trip started in a little Canadian hamlet, where a young child dreamed of something more. Her craft developed along with her growth, transforming personal suffering and delight into music that would reverberate across decades. Joni developed into a storyteller, fusing love, grief, and desire into every note, so transcending mere vocal ability. Joni did not, however, have an easy path to success. Her relationships, her health issues, and the demands of celebrity tried her in ways nobody could have predicted. Still, Joni's soul never wavered. Rising above all challenges, her strong voice and unparalleled ability to push musical limits kept inspiring.
The legacy of Joni Mitchell is evidence of invention and fortitude. Read her whole narrative in the book; it is a great reminder of what it is to live with passion and intent and will help you to appreciate how she overcame it all.
