    "I loved this book. inom loved the back story of how the author chose to write about one of the most influential musicians of all time. inom loved that it took her 9 years to write it, only because of the depth and intimacy she shares within her relationship with Mercedes Sosa, even though she had passed by the time the author started writing. inom loved the way she describes her healing process and how she transformed through her odd yet charming path to becoming whole. Highly recommend." Peggy Lee Sprague
