Linda Esther Gray’s glittering career on stage was all too short, having been forced to retire just as she was about to reach the height of a singer’s aspirations and sing at the Metropolitan Opera House due to the loss of her voice.  This eye-opening book has been written with style and openness. Her opening chapter, weaving her early childhood experiences with her interpretation of her role of Isolde in Reginald Goodall’s and her classic success with Wagner’s Tristan & Isolde, is a triumph. Spanning childhood, early life through to the disaster of loosing her voice then to being able to sing again. Whether you know her personally, or remember her world-class performances, this is a book that paints of brilliant kaleidoscope of her journey through life, with insights into her performances, her music teachings and above all her love for both music and her family. This is an autobiography that deserves reading more than once.
