Book Reviews of Tori Amos: Piece by Piece
Book Review: Art is business
Summary: 4 Stars
I appreciated Powers' glimpse into the mind, spirit and artistry of Tori Amos. Amos straddles an interesting bridge between privacy and being genuine with her fans. Powers' depiction of her in this book both supports that odd juxtaposition and left me questioning even more just how Amos manages to pull it off. I valued the stroll through Amos' creative process and how interwoven that is with her spirituality. What surprised me, oddly, is how assertively Powers presents Amos by the book's end, with regard to claiming her sound, her contractual rights, deciding who makes the band, how she works with the band... I suppose that despite my best judgement I bought into that 15 years career span of faerieness and metaphoric repartee Amos is so well known for in interviews. But then how else would a woman so centered in her power succeed in such a competitive and patriarchal industry? Very interesting read, indeed.
