Review title: Took me ages to get into it....but a great book
Product review: I should state from the beginning, that as a counter-tenor myself, I was advised by someone else that I would love this book. Now I know why she yells "cry to heaven" when I'm singing!It took me over a year to get into it. I'd start reading it, and then just give up. Too many Italian names.;-)When I finally did get into it, I realized just how much effort went into the writing of it.She gets alot of the emotion involved in the music of the time bang on.How I wish classical music was as big a part of our lives today, or that people took music as seriously as they did in 17th Century Italy.Sure theres sex in it, but I didn't find any of it overly gratuitous.I say that if you like a good love story,however predictable, and or are interested in classical music, read this book.I admit that she does Vampires much better, but this is a great book and one that I'll be keeping in my personal library.
