Book Reviews of Letters From a Life: The Selected Letters of Benjamin Britten, Volume Three, 1946-1951
Book Review: Invaluable
Summary: 5 Stars
Donald Mitchell, et.al. have done another remarkable job in providing source material for the serious student of Benjamin Britten's life and music. At the same time, the book reads like a biography. It is filled with invaluble information that helps frame, illuminate and clarify issues surrounding Britten's important work of the time. I especially appreciated Dr. Mitchell's thoughful response to those who would have us look at Britten's incredible artistic contributions solely through the mind and eyes of sexual preference. I can't wait for future volumes.
