520    Since the release of her first, career-defining solo album
       Little Earthquakes, Tori Amos has been one of the music 
       industry's most enduring and ingenious artists. From her 
       unnerving depiction of sexual assault in "Me and a Gun" to
       her post-9/11 album Scarlet's Walk to her latest album 
       Native Invader, her work has never shied away from 
       intermingling the personal with the political.  Amos began
       playing piano as a teenager for the politically powerful 
       at hotel bars in Washington, D.C., during the formative 
       years of the post-Goldwater and then Koch-led Libertarian 
       and Reaganite movements. The story continues to her time 
       as a hungry artist in L.A. to the subsequent three decades
       of her formidable music career. Amos explains how she 
       managed to create meaningful, politically resonant work 
       against patriarchal power structures-and how her proud 
       declarations of feminism and her fight for the 
       marginalized always proved to be her guiding light. She 
       teaches readers to engage with intention in this 
       tumultuous global climate and speaks directly to 
       supporters of #MeToo and #TimesUp, as well as young people
       fighting for their rights and visibility in the world.  
       Filled with compassionate guidance and actionable advice-
       and using some of the most powerful, political songs in 
       Amos's canon-this book is for readers determined to steer 
       the world back in the right direction.
