Review: No Walls and the Recurring Dream

No Walls and the Recurring Dream No Walls and the Recurring Dream by Ani DiFranco
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A wonderful, revealing and entertaining career memoir from Ani. It ends before parenting and much of the 21st Century, including what I wanted to know -- how did she, like me, end up in Louisiana? Hopefully, she will do a follow-up that will reveal that and more. Along with a candid and reflective consideration of abortion, relationships, and the difficulties of recording her voice and acoustic guitar the reluctant entrepreneur averse to self-marketing recalls meeting Prince, touring with Maceo Parker, the travails of touring as a solo artist, not fitting in at the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival and falling in love with Rome (where "ani" is rude).

arrivederci Ani!
