"I love this book! As insightful, provocative, and tenderly biting as its subject matter. Alanis forever."
-Andrea Warner, author of We Oughta Know: How Céline, Shania, Alanis, and Sarah Ruled the '90s and Changed Music
"Megan Volpert has written a lively and affectionate ode to the 'raging sage' who so galvanized her during a fitful adolescence. Volpert listens to Morissette’s groundbreaking Jagged Little Pill through a clutch of filters, from Greek philosophy and lit theory to parodies, covers, and tribute bands; from the album’s Broadway adaptation to Morissette’s own personal writing about spirituality, sensitivity, and healing. Volpert is a lifer fan and a smart critic, 'trust-falling backward' into her own past to argue that 'Alanis matters because she continues to help millions of people get through life for a while.'"
-Joe Bonomo, author of Play This Book Loud: Noisy Essays
