Prodigal Daughter

After some much needed rest from the success of her judggernaut album, Alanis spoke with Paul Cantin. Not written in the voice of Mrs. Thang, Paul does justice to the hardship and creative renewshal she faced time and time again. The truth comes from those who know Alanis best: herself, parents, friends, managers and band members. Broken up into sections, Fate Stay With Me and Head Over Feet, the book discusses her time as the pop princess of (Ottawa) Canada, her failed years and triumphant return with Jagged Little Pill. The myths of her life are demystified and the rumours justified or denied (like the ever famous who was All I Really Want really about?) You Oughta Know is written -in half- by Alanis Morissette, a very candid book much like the prolificness of her lyrics. A worthwhile read for the fan to learn about her rare second chance.
