Description
From inside front cover: The Greek-American Adriana Grafanas is the greatest opera singer of her age and the most famous woman in the world. Her scandals, violent temperament, and self-indulgent cancellations are the stuff of headlines. Now, in 1961, her voice is in shreds and combative personality is exhausted. Sent to Venice to "pull together" the autobiography that Adriana agreed to write, the young American Mark Trigger ... discovers his own passions -- men and Adriana's music. What continues to elude him, however, is a rare bootleg tape of her Venice performance in Cilea's opera Adriana Lecouvreur ... Cleverly drawing on the plot and characters of Cilea's opera itself, Ethan Mordden summons up all the steamy glamour of European cafe society.
