A stunning book of lyrics from Hadestown—the winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical—annotated and explained by its creator, songwriter Anais Mitchell
On Broadway, this modern telling of the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice has been a runaway success. Heralded as „The best new musical of the season,” by the Wall Street Journal, and „Sumptuous. Gorgeous. As good as it gets,” by The New York Times, this show is the breakout hit of 2019, and is positioned to be a longtime Broadway favorite with its poignant social commentary, to the tune of spellbinding music and lyrics.
In this book, Anais Mitchell takes readers inside her more than decade's-long process of building the musical from the ground up—detailing her inspiration, breaking down the lyrics, and offering thoughtful annotations of Hadestown. Fans of the musical will love this deeply thoughtful, revealing, and open look at how the songs from “the underground” evolved and became what they are today.

But looking back on these old drafts and even the orphans, I see that writing is more like gardening. You're raking around in the dirt, pulling up weeds. Flowers you love and find beautiful die on you. But not for nothing; they go back into the soil, and they nourish it.
