This review is from: Between Opera and Cinema (Critical and Cultural Musicology) (Hardcover)
Between opera and Cinema by Rose Theresa
I haven't read the book yet, but I was schocked and surprised by the bad quality of the printing (photocopied) and outrageous price. More than US$ 100,00. it is hard covered allright, but the price is even harder.
