the major international stars of the post-World War II opera scene
makes this title essential." "Library Journal""

her life. She also reveals herself as a slyly humorous lady and

Record Guide""
"This is an engaging book. We come to know this formidable but
warm-hearted woman so well that on next playing a record of hers we
are sure to be on her side as never before... it may not be reading
for the objective professional critic, but it can be highly
recommended to everyone else." John Stearne, "Gramophone""
