Nothing Compares to You

“A celebration of life, both of Sinéad herself as well as each of the authors of the essays. The anthology is filled with story after story of survival that was manifested, accompanied by, or assisted by the sound of O’Connor’s voice echoing in the writer’s ears, head, heart, or pit of the stomach. They are beautiful, and you will cheer every single writer on.”
—Caryn Rose, Salon
“A choir worthy of backing one extraordinary voice.”
—Booklist
“A vivid and multifaceted ode to a trailblazing musician.”
—Publishers Weekly
