Lady Sings the Blues - Het leven van Billie Holiday

This memoir offers a raw, personal perspective that feels authentic. I'm curious how much of it was shaped by Billie Holiday's own reflections versus external accounts.

Her battles felt very real and human, but I wondered if the portrayal avoided some of the stereotypes often seen in biographies of musicians with similar issues.

Her life was deeply intertwined with the racial tensions of her time. I’d love to hear thoughts on how her personal history shaped her artistic expression.
