“Divas have a reputation for being pampered and demanding, haughty and self-centered. In Goodwin’s sensitive hands, Callas is much more complex: passionate yet constrained, strong-willed yet malleable, her intimidating presence masking a mountain of self-doubt. Rich, refined, balanced, and believable, the result is an enthralling portrait of a revered artist and sadly misunderstood woman.”–Booklist
