DESCRIPTION
"A remarkably complex portrait of Aretha Franklin's music and her tumultuous life." --Rolling Stone
Aretha Franklin began life as the golden daughter of a progressive and promiscuous Baptist preacher. Raised without her mother, she was a gospel prodigy who gave birth to two sons in her teens and left them--and her native Detroit--for New York, where she struggled to find her true voice. After fame and fortune finally came via "Respect," and a rapid-fire string of hits, she has evolved ever since, amidst personal tragedy, surprise Grammy performances, and career reinventions.
Aretha's hold on her crown is tenacious, and in "Respect" David Ritz gives us the decisive and definitive study of one of the greatest American talents of the twentieth century..
