A love letter to the living pop icon of today.
She breaks all records in music history, fills the largest stadiums worldwide, and is feared by Donald Trump: Taylor Swift is the biggest, most influential pop phenomenon of our time. How did a girl with a guitar become a global star with millions of devoted fans, and why is it so cool to be a "Swiftie"?
Book influencer and Swiftie Anne Sauer examines her own connection to Taylor Swift and embarks on a personal journey through the "eras" of the past two decades. In 13 chapters, she explores the history of the phenomenon, delves into Swift's musical evolution, and critically examines the reception of the pop star and her own fandom. What does it mean for an artist to constantly reinvent themselves? Where does the need to downplay such unique success come from? And what does it say about critics who seem eager to see a woman fail.
