Apparently Mercer interviewed Joni and received much inside information. Joni is not renowned for giving interviews. I am now reading Katherine Monks "JONI" (sans interview) and find some discrepancies between the two books. I daresay that Monks book may be more accurate; but arent there always discrepancies when discussing a mythic figure. Joni is certainly a chimera! She is also an artist who cannot be defined by any typical genre. Joni is her own genre; and I love her. I certainly know Joni better after reading these books; but to know her intimately I listen to her music. Joni reveals herself through music and art! What better way!5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Songwriting Doesnt Get BetterBy ScottyI loved Joni Mitchell since the seventies (when I was so much younger). Blue remains one of my favorite CDs. It stands the test of time. Songwriting doesnt get any better. This "biography" lets you glimpse into the younger Joni Mitchell; her songs; her lovers; her demons and her angels. If you cant get enough about Joni; I think youll enjoy this book.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
