Twain, whose 14-year marriage with Lange ended in 2008 after he allegedly had an affair with their secretary and the manager of their Swiss chateau, says recent struggles created a "sudden urgency to document my life before I ran out of time."
The two officially divorced in Juneand Twain has since moved on with a new man, Frederic Thiebaud, who is the ex-husband of Lange's supposed mistress.
The Grammy winner shot to fame in the 1990s with hits like "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" and "You're Still the One." She's due to have her own TV series, airing on Oprah Winfrey's new OWN network, next year.
