With wit, charm and false fingernails, Dolly Parton has made it from the hillbilly hinterland to the world's biggest stages, where she has remained for 60 years. Countless people can sing along to songs like 9 to 5, Jolene and I Will Always Love You, her opulent blonde wigs are recognised the world over, and even Gen Z enjoys Dolly's snappy wisdom on social media. So who better to learn from than her how to overcome life's big challenges? Put on a smile, don't take yourself too seriously and remember that hardships are sometimes part of the game. This book brings together the country icon's most inspiring sayings and surprising life twists.

 

"If people still remember me in a hundred years' time, I hope it will be because of my books and not because of my looks." Dolly Parton

Taylor Jackson

Taylor »Apple« Jackson schreibt Bücher über außergewöhnliche Kulturphänomene, etwa über Johnny Depp, die Holländer oder Mark Twain. Als Südstaaten-Original ist Taylor zwar so echt wie Dolly Partons lange Wimpern und ihr blondes Haar, doch besonders in humoristischen Belangen sind die beiden tief verbunden.
