Title: Enjoyable and Accurate Enough for Me
Review: I enjoyed this book because I knew nothing about Mozart aside from the movie, Amadeus, which was entertaining, but apparently historically inaccurate. "Marrying Mozart" brought to life a era and person of which I had no previous frame of reference.It is true that this story was more about the Weber sisters and mother. But, the story and dialog showed real life insight into mother/daughter realationships and how a family can fall apart when the "glue" is gone or as children grow into their own. The story also describes the times, struggles, and inglorious life of even genius level musicians.While there was some sexual content (just for you parents to know before making your 10 year old do a book report), it dispersed the Amadeus movie myth that Mozart was sex obsessed (at least no more than any 20 year old man). And according to Wikipedia's version of the story it was pretty accurate too!
