Book Reviews of La Nilsson: My Life in Opera

Book Review: La Nilsson Superstar
Summary: 5 Stars

Birgit Nilsson had one of if not the greatest voices ever. Blessed with vocal chords like steel and a determination to succeed she was also blessed with a great sense of homour.

This book tells her story as only Birgit could. No frills, no stretches of fantasy--A great read about truly " a force of nature"
