Toni M. (ScrappinToni) - , reviewed on 2/20/2007 + 2 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 2

not the usual Rice horror. This one is set in 18th century Italy and tells the story of the castrati, those half-men who were idolized and adored for their powerful soprano voices. A fascinating glimpse of the decadence and shimmering beauty of the time . . . and the pain and suffering as well.
