coal miner's daughter

Edición de la obra Loretta Lynn

"Loretta Lynn was immortalized to millions of Americans through the book and film Coal Miner's Daughter as the future country star who married at thirteen and braved indescribable hardship and poverty. Now, the undisputed queen of country music goes beyond the early years she chronicled in her first memoir to explore the thirty-five subsequent years of her life - the complete tale of a star who was woman enough to rise in triumph. The book's title is taken from Lynn's hit song "You Ain't Woman Enough to Take My Man" - and in this riveting account, Loretta proves why she has served as a source of inspiration to countless American women.". "In Still Woman Enough Loretta writes candidly about the price of fame and the stresses of stardom, telling of friends and family she's loved and lost along the way, all in her signature friendly, down-home style. The backdrop for this inspirational story is the tumultuous life of the most honored woman in the history of country music. Loretta shares secrets that are not in her first book, discussing in much more detail her move from Butcher Holler, Kentucky, to faraway Washington state, where she had her fourth child by age eighteen and where her husband forced her to sing in local taverns. She tells of her own encounters with domestic violence and shares the ordeals that rocked her home - domestic explosions that often occurred before her terrified children. Loretta, now a grandmother, chronicles the passionate, often volatile, but always enduring forty-eight-year relationship with her hard-drinking husband, Mooney - "one of the hardest love stories in the world.""--BOOK JACKET.
