The life of an icon, in her own words. Joni Mitchell had a unique relationship with the BBC, making appearances on 'the beeb' throughout her career. An anonymous talent, a blossoming starlet, a white-hot star and a bona fide legend: the BBC had the inside scoop on it all. In this fascinating collection of BBC television and radio transcripts, Joni's life story is told in her own words, across more than a dozen appearances spanning over forty years. Each provides an illuminating snapshot of moments in a remarkable career. But read together, they offer a completely new take on Joni herself, a first-person look at the rise and rise of a star. Compiled and guided by BBC journalist Tom Hagler, River of Words: Joni Mitchell at the BBC is the complete story of an incredible life lived on the airwaves.
Joni Mitchell, Chords of Inquiry is not just another biography—it’s a lyrical, investigative journey into the mind and music of one of the most influential and enigmatic artists of our time. While countless writers have chronicled Joni Mitchell’s life through the lens of fame, romance, or scandal, this book takes a radically different approach: it listens. Drawing from six decades of interviews, lyrics, public statements, and archival context, Chords of Inquiry weaves together Mitchell’s own words to construct a narrative that is as complex, poetic, and fiercely honest as the artist herself. Rather than retelling her life in neat chapters, the book mirrors the rhythm of her creative evolution—unfolding like a Joni Mitchell album: rich with contradiction, beauty, heartbreak, and defiance. Through meticulous research and immersive storytelling, the book places Joni’s personal journey within the larger cultural and political movements that shaped her, offering new insight into how she both influenced and resisted the times she lived through. From the windswept prairies of Saskatchewan to the smoky coffeehouses of Toronto and the rebellion of Laurel Canyon, this is the first biography that attempts to understand not just what Joni Mitchell did, but how she felt. No sensationalism. No filters. Just Joni—through her chords, her poetry, and the lens she gave us all along.

Katie Mitchell: Beautiful Illogical Acts offers the first comprehensive study of Britain’s most internationally recognised, influential, and controversial theatre director. It examines Mitchell’s innovations in fourth-wall realism, opera, and Live Cinema across major British and European institutions, bringing three decades of practice vividly to life.Informed by first-hand rehearsal observations and in-depth conversations with the director and her collaborators, Fowler investigates the intense and immersive qualities of Mitchell’s distinctive theatrical realism and challenges mainstream narratives about realism as a defunct or inherently conservative genre. He explores Mitchell’s theatre—and its often polarised reception—to question familiar assumptions governing contemporary performance criticism, including common binaries that pit realism against radical experimentation, auteurs against texts, feminists against Naturalism, and Britain against Europe. By examining a career trajectory that intersects with huge cultural change, Fowler places Mitchell at the centre of urgent contemporary debates about cultural transformation and its genuinely inclusive potential.This is an essential book for those interested in Katie Mitchell, British theatre, directing, the transformative power of realism and feminism in contemporary theatre practice, and challenges to hierarchical distributions of power inside the mainstream.
