""This is an outstanding look at one of the world's most beloved entertainers... a smart, incisive look at the singer-songwriter who has captured the world's imagination.""--Kirkus (starred)

""Taylor Swift is lucky to have a fan, a listener, and a writer as open to her music and as acute to its internal and emotional rhythms, Swift's craft and her audience's response, as Stephanie Burt. With unfailing lucidity, empathy, and wit, she takes a reader through the songs, until you can hear, all over again, how they really work.""--Greil Marcus, music journalist Tom Perrotta, author of The Leftovers ""This is an outstanding look at one of the world's most beloved entertainers... a smart, incisive look at the singer-songwriter who has captured the world's imagination.""--Kirkus (starred)
