Daisy Jones & The Six is told entirely in oral history format — interviews conducted years later about the rise and dissolution of a 1970s rock band. Daisy Jones was the voice. Billy Dunne was the songwriter. Their creative partnership produced one perfect album. What ended them is the story. A novel about art, addiction, and why some things can't be kept.
