Soft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. Card covers. 24 × 16.5cm, 214pp. Signed and dedicated by John Pettitt to the title page. This is not just another book about Maria Callas. It deals specifically with her great recorded legacy and its turbulent reception by the critics over half a century. Callas, now recognised as the supremely great singer of the last century, changed the face of opera both on stage and in the recording studio, but not without a struggle against audiences and critics alike. Her recording career, miraculously the product of the new LP era, played an enormous part in her sudden leap to fame, and reflected many of her celebrated triumphs and traumas on stage. Like one of her legendary roles, Tosca, she gave her life to art and love and music, and like Puccini's tragic heroine, paid dearly for it. Lavishly illustrated with over 50 photographs relating to the diva's recording sessions, Maria Callas: A Record Obsession is the work of one passionate collector amongst thousands, and charts the course of the fascinating critical response to her recordings from early doubters in the Fifties to the universal acclaim of today. Condition: A good solid copy, with some light fading and a slight crease to the spine. Inner binding sound, and a hint of yellowing to the page edges. Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition, first printing. Hardback in dustwrapper. 24 × 16cm, 329pp. This copy is signed and dedicated by Arianna Stassinopolulos, and has a warm handwritten letter loosely enclosed from the author to the dedicatees. For millions of people, Maria Callas was the focus of unparalleled fascination. She transformed herself from a fat, awkward girl into a woman of magnetic beauty and personality. Yet, even while the fairy tale transformation was taking place, the tragedy had begun to unfold: in her unresolvable conflict with her mother, her deeply emotional relationship with her voice, her terrible dependence on Onassis, her secret abortion, and the agony and humiliation of Onassis' marriage to Jackie Kennedy. And, underlying all these, a ceaseless struggle raged inside her between the legend and the woman, the image and reality, between Callas and Maria. This biography documents this struggle with previously unpublished material. Condition: Both book and dustwrapper are in very good condition. The book has some light tanning to the pages' top edge and there is a little crinkling to the wrapper but it is otherwise a very sound copy. Signed by Author(s).
