Discover the fascinating stories that lie behind the music.

In a career spanning 75 glorious years, Dolly Parton has written some of the greatest songs in music history. Join award-winning author Annie Zaleski (Rolling Stone, Billboard) as she uncovers the fascinating inspiration behind more than 150 of Dolly's finest compositions from across her long and hit-filled career.

From her biggest hits to hidden gems, Zaleski explores and explains the details of each song, from Jolene and 9 to 5, to Here You Come Again and the timeless I WIll Always Love You.

A journey through some of the biggest songs ever written - plus some surprising, lesser-known deep cuts - this is the story of a true country legend, told through her music.
