Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. From the moment Joni Mitchell's career began -- with coffee-house bookings, serendipitous encounters with established stars, and a recording contract that gave her full creative control over her music -- the woman from the Canadian wheat fields has eluded industry cliches. When her peers were focused on feminism, Mitchell was plumbing the depths of her own human condition. When arena rock was king, she turned to jazz. When all others hailed Bob Dylan as a musical messiah, Mitchell saw a fraud burdened with halitosis. Unafraid to "write in her own blood," regardless of the cost, Mitchell has been vilified as a diva and embraced as a genius, but rarely has she been recognized as an artist and a thinker. This new portrait of the reclusive icon examines how significant life events -- failed relationships, the surrender of her infant daughter, debilitating sickness -- have influenced her creative expression. Author Katherine Monk captures the rich legacy of her multifaceted subject in this offbeat account, weaving in personal reflections and astute cultural observations, and revealing the Mitchell who remains misunderstood.…

Joni Mitchell's life and work have attracted many labels--and plenty of scrutiny. But until now, no single book has delved so deeply into the art, the philosophy, the loves, and the heartbreaks that have shaped Joni as a woman and an artist. Katherine Monk takes us on a witty, moving, and enlightening journey into the heart and soul of a monumental career." [publisher copy] "An in-depth portrait of the life of an artist. It felt oddly like tracking my own genealogy, as Joni Mitchell, unbeknownst to her, raised me from a very early age."--Edie Falco, a Soprano. "Katherine Monk's JONI: THE CREATIVE ODYSSEY OF JONI MITCHELL is destined to become one of a handful of books that will define the woman and her output."--Les Irvin, Joni's webmaster. "With clear-cutting language and an encyclopedic rock knowledge, Monk pursues the project with the laser-sharp focus of an anthropologist, digging for a more genuine portrait of the love-song-singing ingenue. . . an insightful read from cover to cover."--Boxx Music Magazine.
