Product details
Reyes Monforte regresa con la apasionante novela sobre Adelina Patti, la mujer española que nació en una pensión y se convirtió en la mejor cantante de la historia. La soprano mejor pagada de la historia. La mujer más famosa del siglo XIX. La voz que enmudeció al mundo. Nueva York, 1851. Una niña prodigio del bel canto llamada Adelina Patti atrae la atención del selecto circuito de la ópera americana. ¿Puede una cría nacida en una pensión de la calle Fuencarral de Madrid llegar a tener un talento tan incontestable? Adelina comienza una carrera meteórica que la hace cada vez más famosa -hasta el punto de convertirse en la soprano favorita de la reina Victoria y en confidente de la reina Isabel II de España-, pero también vulnerable a las trampas del amor, la fama, el dinero, la traición y la venganza. De Abraham Lincoln al príncipe de Gales, de Guiseppe Verdi al zar Alejandro II, de León Tolstói a Pérez Galdós, y pasando por Oscar Wilde, Giochino Rossini, Eugenia de Montijo, Napoléon III o Émile Zola, muchas fueron las celebridades de su tiempo que reverenciaron a la Patti como a una diosa, una leyenda inolvidable y adelantada a su tiempo. Consciente de elegir mejor las óperas que a sus maridos, se casó tres veces, vivió rodeada de polémicas y construyó su propio camino de éxito mientras desafiaba la estricta moral victoriana. Todo para vivir en libertad como mujer y artista sin dejarse pisotear en un mundo hecho por y para los hombres. En su nueva y magnífica novela, Reyes Monforte ha construido una trama épica inolvidable, la apasionante epopeya de la primera gran diva de la historia de la música.
