“Curiously, I find I admire Mitchell more and more as I get older (the opposite of my experience with most of her fellow ’70s singer-songwriters). Albums like ‘Hejira’ and ‘Blue’ now sound undeniably like great art, and don’t lean one bit on nostalgia to do so. But she’s always been an enigma to me, and I’m hoping this book will be full of quiet revelations.” — Kazuo Ishiguro, Nobel Prize-winning author of Never Let Me Go and The Remains of the Day, for the New York Times Book Review

“The book, which includes photographs and reproductions of Mitchell’s paintings, makes for a compelling narrative of the creative life and is recommended for both Mitchell fans and for music lovers.” — Publishers Weekly

“The gifted, adventurous musician talks as brilliantly as she writes and sings.” — Kirkus Reviews

“This valuable book not only portrays an enduring artist but also reflects several decades of changing societal and musical culture. It will appeal to a wide audience and should be a part of music collections in public or academic libraries.” — Library Journal

“In the rare interviews she gives, Joni Mitchell doesn’t hold back. This is even truer in Malka Marom’s new book about the musician’s life and creative process. Mitchell comes across as more candid and outspoken than usual, likely due to the fact that Marom is part of Mitchell’s inner circle of friends.” — Quill & Quire
