Dolly Parton has announced her book, Dolly Parton, Songteller: My Life in Lyrics, will be getting a limited edition release.

Originally released in November of 2020, Dolly Parton, Songteller: My Life in Lyrics is a landmark celebration of Parton’s remarkable life and music written with long-time music journalist, historian, author and critic for MusicRow, Robert K. Oermann. Both a visual memoir and annotated songbook, the New York Times bestselling book explores the lyrics of 175 songs that defined Parton’s journey. Illustrated with rare photos and memorabilia, Songteller offers an intimate look at her over 60-year career as a songwriter, musician, and country superstar.

Releasing in October 2021 in partnership with Chronicle Books, the limited edition includes a special version of the book with gilded page edges and a ribbon bookmark inside a clamshell box wrapped in denim, all to evoke the legendary singer’s iconic style. The upcoming collector’s item also includes a 45 record on pink vinyl featuring two unreleased demo songs, “I Don’t Care” and “The Fall,” encased in a printed sleeve with lyrics on the back. The rollout of the limited edition book includes 150 Dolly-signed copies that will be sold separately.

“Dolly Parton’s bestselling Songteller, with its unique telling of Dolly’s life through her lyrics, is already a must-have for her fans,” says Christine Carswell, publisher of Chronicle Books. “How proud we are now to publish this special new limited edition! Including never-released vinyl and beautifully crafted, it’s infused with her extraordinary spirit and a real treat for all of us who love Dolly and her music.”

The $250.00 limited edition is available for preorder now with the $325.00 signed limited edition on sale starting in October.
