"Jürgen Kesting's biography of Maria Callas provides a compelling and comprehensive portrait of one of the twentieth century's greatest opera performers. Kesting draws effectively from the most important works on Callas to elucidate the early days of her career, her rise to fame and stardom, and the personal crises and compromised vocal powers that led to her professional decline. He pays particular attention to Callas's effect on the development of the long-playing record, the "superstar" syndrome, and the men (Luchino Visconti, Franco Zeffirelli, Walter Legger) who helped model her stage and studio performances."
