E-raamat: Energy Follows Thought: The Stories Behind My Songs

"[ An] irresistible outing . . [ Nelson's] intelligence and wisdom shine through . . . Fans will relish these insights into the singer-songwriter's many avatars: the kid growing up poor with close ties to his church and family; the political activist who wrote Vote Em Out for Beto ORourkes 2018 senatorial campaign; and the enigmatic, sui generis artist. This is a treasure." Publishers Weekly

"In a wry narrative shot through with a loopy, stoner spiritualism, the great songwriter and outlaw country artist takes a ramble through his back pages. . . . A lively accompaniment to Nelson's sprawling, genre-crossing, delightful catalog of recordings." Kirkus Reviews

"[ Willie Nelson's] songwriting has consistently been indicative of a born storyteller. Its fun and, at times, illuminating to read about where some of those stories stemmed from. The photos are great too. . . . A sweet and intimate retrospective of a long and prolific career. This book will make readers feel like theyve sat down with Nelson, who has just regaled them with tales." Library Journal

"Throughout this lovely act of looking back and moving forward, Nelson wears his well-worn heart on his sleeve. . . . Willie Nelson's many admirers cross myriad lines, and they will eagerly pursue this chance to get close to their idol." Booklist

"[ R]eflective and thoughtful . . . [ Nelson's] commentary is clear, introspective, patient and wiseshowing how his 90 years have funneled into a new perspective on his lyricism and canon. The stories read like Willie himself is sitting across the dinner table from you, regaling you of his best stories from years past." The Tennessean
