9781668019504 - Alford Henry I Dream of Joni

Bilder-Quelle: averdo

The eternal singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell is seen anew portrayed through a witty and comprehensive exploration of anecdotes quotes and lyrics by Henry Alford “the most graceful of humorists” ( Vanity Fair) and a writer for The New Yorker . Joni Mitchell’s life psyche and evolving legacy are explored here in vivid technicolor—from her childhood in Saskatoon Canada to her arrival in Laurel Canyon that turned her into as Alford puts it “the bard of heartbreak and longing.” Each period of Mitchell’s life is observed via the artists friends family and lovers she encountered along the way including James Taylor Leonard Cohen Georgia O’Keefe Prince and most significantly Kilauren the daughter Mitchell gave up for adoption at birth but then reconnected with decades later. Presented in the impressionistic vein of Ninety-Nine Glimpses of Princess Margaret I Dream of Joni explores in fifty-three essays with the author’s trademark wit and verve the life of the legendary singer-songwriter.
