"Part autobiography, part narrative documentary, Alicia [Keys'] journey is revealed not only through her own candid recounting, but also through . . . recollections from those who have walked alongside her. The result is a 360-degree perspective on Alicia's path--from her girlhood in Hell's Kitchen and Harlem, to the process of self-discovery she's still navigating. In [this book], Alicia shares her quest for truth--about herself, her past, and her shift from sacrificing her spirit to celebrating her worth. With the raw honesty that epitomizes Alicia's artistry, [it] is at once an . . . account and a clarion call to readers: to define themselves in a world that rarely encourages a true and unique identity"--Provided by publisher.
