In this Time Top 100 Book of the Year, the National Book Award finalist and New York Times best-selling author of Heartland “analyzes how Dolly Parton’s songs – and success – have embodied feminism for working-class women” (People).

Growing up among the wheat fields and airplane factories in Kansas, Sarah Smarsh witnessed firsthand the unique vulnerabilities – and strengths – of working poor women. In her family, she writes “country music is first and foremost the language of women. That’s how we talk to each other in a place where feelings aren’t discussed”.  And no one offers that language better than Dolly Parton.

In the section “celebrating the woman who continues to prove that feminism wears colors, “Smarsh tells listeners how Parton’s songs have authenticated women who have never been heard: who Poor women, pregnant teenagers, and hard-working mothers are criticized as “trash”. Parton’s broader career – from singing on the porch of her family’s bungalow in the Great Smoky Mountains to stardom in Nashville and Hollywood, from “singer” managed by powerful men to Self-made philanthropist and business mogul – creating a springboard to test the intersections of gender, class and culture.

As a lifelong white suburban Dolly fan, I am delighted that this book has given me a whole new understanding of the artist and the women she has represented since long all the love, understanding and compassion of a Dolly song. Great book.
