Who Really Cares

Who Really Cares: Poems from Childhood and Early Youth by Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter Janis Ian, includes all poetry from earlier, print editions of this early proof of what was to come from one of America's most talented songwriters. Though Ian is a prolific composer and world-famous for her music and performances, this is the musician's only book of poetry. It was first published in 1969, and has become a collector's item in print.

Janis Ian wrote almost all of the poems during her teen years, a time when she was first thrust into the national and international spotlight as a songwriter and voice of her generation.

This edition includes a new afterword by Janis Ian, along with all poems from earlier editions.

The audio editions are narrated by Janis, and include original music and some singing by her as well!
