No Walls and the Recurring Dream by Ani Difranco
A memoir by the celebrated singer-songwriter and social activist Ani DiFrancoIn her memoir, No Walls and the Recurring Dream, Ani DiFranco recounts her early life from a place of hard-won wisdom, combining personal expression, the power of music, feminism, political activism, storytelling, philanthropy, entrepreneurship, and much more into an inspiring whole. In these frank, honest, passionate, and often funny pages is the tale of one woman's eventful and radical journey to the age of thirty. Ani's coming of age story is defined by her ethos of fierce independence--from being an emancipated minor sleeping in a Buffalo bus station, to unwaveringly building a career through appearances at small clubs and festivals, to releasing her first album at the age of 18, to consciously rejecting the mainstream recording industry and creating her own label, Righteous Babe Records. In these pages, as in life, she never hesitates to question established rules and expectations, maintaining a level of artistic integrity that has inspired and challenged more than a few. Ani continues to be a major touring and recording artist as well as a celebrated activist and feminist, standing as living proof that you can overcome all personal and societal obstacles to be who you are and to follow your dreams.
Ani DiFranco is a Grammy-winning musician and feminist icon known for her social activism and political engagement, as well as her poetry and lyrics that pierces social convention and challenges the existing quo. She is the mother of the DIY movement and has sold over 5.5 million CDs on her own Righteous Babe Records, which she founded in 1990. She recently published her twentieth studio album. Her music has embraced numerous genres and collaborations, ranging from Pete Seeger to Chuck D to Prince, and she is known as the Little Folksinger. She currently resides in New Orleans.
