About this product
Product Information
Una biografía novelada de la vida íntima de la gran María Callas, la diva por excelencia. ¡Descubre la magia detrás de la leyenda! Pronto, Angelina Jolie dará vida a la inigualable María Callas en la esperada biopic "María". Mucho se ha escrito y dicho sobre María Callas, uno de los mitos del siglo XX, pero casi nadie ha tenido acceso a su correspondencia privada, unas cartas en las que María expresaba su yo más íntimo. Alfonso Signorini, un hombre devoto desde la infancia de la voz de la gran artista tenía entre manos estos documentos cuando se puso a escribir La vida de María Callas. Tan fiera, tan frágil, la biografía novelada de la diva que nació en Nueva York en 1923 en una familia de inmigrantes griegos. Toda la vida de María Callas desfila por estas páginas, pero no a través de sus éxitos, sino buceando en las dudas y miedos de una mujer que empezó cantando en los peores bares de Nueva York, que fue explotada por la codicia de su madre, que cuando llegó a Italia para iniciar una verdadera carrera tuvo que hospedarse en una pensión de ínfima categoría y que luchó con uñas y dientes por dejar atrás a la niña que había sido. Desde su feroz enamoramiento de Aristóteles Onassis, que la abandonó por Jackie Kennedy, hasta sus intentos de suicidio, esta luminosa biografía devuelve a la vida a la gran Callas en un retrato único y descarnado de una diva triste que conoció, a la par, la gloria y la soledad. «Crecí comiendo pan y Callas porque mis abuelos se conocieron escuchando La Traviatta, y toda mi vida he estado acompañado por su voz». -Alfonso Signorini «Fiera inmortal, criatura capaz de desafiar una vida de humillaciones para convertir su constante drama personal en arte, icono del divismo [...] en la era de los fenómenos globales, revitalizadora de un modo de expresión caduco como la ópera [...]. Generosa y vengativa, fiera indomable [...] majestuosa y vulnerable, María Callas marcó su época». -Jesús Ruiz Mantilla, El País ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A fictionalized biography of the intimate life of the great María Callas, the quintessential diva. Discover the magic behind the legend! Soon, Angelina Jolie will bring to life the unparalleled María Callas in the highly anticipated biopic María . Much has been said and written about María Callas, one of the myths of the twentieth century, but almost no one has had access to her private correspondence, letters in which María exposes her most intimate self. Alfonso Signorini, a man devoted from infancy to the voice of the great artist, had these documents at hand when he set on writing The Life of María Callas: So Fierce, So Frail, a fictionalized biography of the diva, born in New York, in 1923, into a family of Greek immigrants. María Callas'' entire life parades along these pages; not through her successes, but diving into the doubts and fears of a woman who began singing in New York''s worst joints, exploited by her mother''s greed, and who, upon arriving in Italy to begin a new career, had to stay in third-rate lodgings and fight tooth and nail to leave the girl she had been behind. From her furious infatuation with Aristotle Onassis, who left her for Jackie Kennedy, to her suicide attempts, this luminous biography revives the great Callas in a unique and raw portrait of this sad diva who knew both glory and solitude at the same time. "I grew up eating bread and Callas because my grandparents met while listening to La Traviata , and my whole life I''ve been accompanied by her voice." --Alfonso Signorini "Fiercely immortal, a creature capable of challenging a life of humiliation to transform her constant personal drama into art, an icon among divas... in an age of global phenomena, revitalizing such an outdated form of expression as opera... Generous and vengeful, fiercely indomitable... majestic and vulnerable, María Callas left a mark on her time." --Jesús Ruiz Mantilla, El País
