Book Reviews of Benjamin Britten a Biography
Book Review: A must read....with caution
Summary: 4 Stars
Carpenter has given us a top rate book of Britten the man. He unfortunately sheds no light on Britten's actual music. By all means, read the book, but ignore his ... "analyses," and take his attempts psychology with a grain of salt.
