About

New York Times bestseller Dolly Parton, Songteller: My Life in Lyrics is a landmark celebration of the remarkable life and career of a country music and pop culture legend.

This landmark volume explores the remarkable life and lyrics of the one and only Dolly Parton.

For decades, Dolly Parton has charmed the world with her distinct voice, iconic performances, and vivacious personality. The composer of over three thousand songs, she has spent her entire life transforming her experiences into lyrical melodies—sharing her stories and connecting with others the way she uniquely knows best: through music.

Told in her own words, Dolly mines over sixty years of songwriting to share the personal stories, candid insights, and vivid memories behind 175 of her songs. Capturing her journey from small-town dreamer to global superstar, each chapter chronicles the pivotal lyrics and milestones in her life—the first song she wrote at age six; her debut single at age thirteen; her tenacious move to Nashville at eighteen; her big break on The Porter Wagoner Show; her million-selling solo success; her film stardom and international renown; and so much more. Through these songs, Dolly reveals her inspirations and influences; her faith and determination; and her creative process and the confident, ambitious attitude that has defined her illustrious career and make her so universally loved.

Gorgeously illustrated with personal childhood photographs, handwritten lyrics, rarely seen archival imagery, classic album art and memorabilia, and more, this show-stopping book celebrates the enduring legacy of one of the most beloved songwriters of all time.
