Dolly Parton, the country music artist whose voice carried five decades of American longing, humor, and quiet defiance, has died after a brief battle with cancer. In the hours that followed, millions turned instinctively to her music — particularly 'Jolene' — as if the songs themselves were a place to gather. Her passing closes a chapter in which one woman, long underestimated, managed to make the personal feel universal and the political feel human. What remains is a body of work that will continue to find its way to people who need exactly what she knew how to give.
