Rosanne Cash
A candid and moving memoir from the critically acclaimed singer and songwriter.
For 30 years as a musician, Rosanne Cash has enjoyed both critical and commercial success, releasing a series of albums that are as notable for their lyrical intelligence as for their musical excellence. Now, in her memoir, Cash writes compellingly about her upbringing in Southern California as the child of country legend Johnny Cash, and of her relationship with her mother and her famous stepmother, June Carter Cash.
In her account of her development as an artist, she shares memories of a hilarious stint as a 20-year-old working for Columbia Records in London; recording her own first album on a German label; working her way to success; her marriage to Rodney Crowell, a union that made them Nashville's premier couple; her relationship with the country music establishment; and taking a new direction in her music and leaving Nashville to move to New York. She also discusses motherhood; dealing with the deaths of her parents, in part through music; the process of songwriting; and the fulfillment she has found with her current husband and musical collaborator, John Leventhal.
Cash has written an unconventional and compelling memoir that, in the tradition of M. F. K. Fisher's The Gastronomical Me and Frank Conroy's Stop-Time, is a series of linked pieces that combine to form a luminous and brilliant whole.

Fans of Johnny Cash will not be disappointed as she spends the majority of the book discussing her and her father's relationship and the many ways he has influenced her. However, fans looking for stories about her collaborations and friendships with Bruce Springsteen, Stephen King, and others will certainly leave wanting more; and I- for one- really hope she does deliver a follow-up (something she hints at in this book).
She does an amazing job reading her book. 10/10 highly recommend.
