The Monster I Am Today: Leontyne Price and a Life in Verse

Beschreibung

Writer and musician Kevin Simmonds explores Leontyne Price as an icon, a diva, a woman, and a patriot--and himself as a fan, a budding singer, and a gay man--through passages that move polyphonically through Black identity, Black sound, Black sensibility, and Black history.
