Thank you to OrangeSky Audio's Catalog for an audio copy of this book narrated so beautifully by the author.
This book is raw and visceral and takes you on a whirlwind of both Melnick and Parton’s trauma. How Melnick’s trauma is often tied to to Parton’s. Every big T trauma Melnick has faced in her lifetime can or has been connected to a Dolly Parton song or moment. We go through both Melnick’s life starting with her childhood stint in rehab. Where hearing a Dolly Parton song over the loud speaker for better or worse changed the trajectory of how she listened to music going forward. We see the ups and downs of both Melnick and Parton’s lives. I laughed, I cried, I learned. If you’ve experienced any sort of trauma and use music to help soothe your pain this read might be for you. It opened my eyes to Melnicks poetry that I will certainly be on the look out for moving forward.
