Youre a big girl now, thoughts on a rock adulthood
In: “You‚re a Big Girl Now: Thoughts On A Rock Adulthood” Darcey Steinke overcomes a geographically challenged childhood, stuttering, KISS fandom, house music and other adolescent perils in her spiritual quest. The music of Bob Dylan eventually nourishes her listless soul, yet her search for transcendence continues. It leads from Graceland to complete control of her CD player, and beyond.
