This is the one.

I was looking for an in-depth bio on Miss Simone for a class project, but what I was reading only scratched the surface - this is the one! I came out of this book a fan, and, hopefully, a better person. I found this to be a balanced biography that covered Miss Simone's ups and downs while respecting her and always presenting her as a complex individual. Understanding more about her absolute brilliance, how she struggled with racism and mental illness (and how they were connected), and how deeply and achingly rooted she was in classical music and the Civil Rights movement has been moving and profound.
