Rosanne Cash

2010
Jonathan Yardley Best of 2010

December 10, 2010

By Jonathan Yardley, Washington Post
From WashingtonPost.com:

And then we have Composed (Viking, $26.95), by Rosanne Cash, who in her music and now in her memoir is entirely beyond category. The daughter of Johnny Cash by his first marriage, a composer and performer in her own right, Cash turns out to be a splendid prose stylist as well. Her life hasn't been easy, and getting out from the huge shadow cast by her beloved but stupendously famous father - not to mention that of her stepmother, June Carter Cash - has been one of the harder parts of it, but she has lived to tell the tale and she does so with wit, grace and style. "Composed" is very close to perfect.
