"Like her music, Vega's prose is studded with precise images that prove her a keen observer of the world..."--This text refers to the Paperback edition.

As someone who owns all of her CDs, I found the inclusion of all of Vega's song lyrics a little redundant.

A little heavy-handed, little structure, but interesting!

The interview with Leonard Cohen alone is by far worth every penny I chose to spend on this book. I love Leonard Cohen... to see these two artists interacting and conflicting in a dialogue on a printed page was FANTASTIC. The rest of the book is a little harder to warm up to... although die-hard fans will cherish every window into Suzanne's head and heart.
