Legacy: The Acclaimed Novel of Elizabeth, England's… de Susan Kay

Here's what I wrote after reading in 1987: "The story of Elizabeth I, daughter of Henry VIII and Anne Boelyn and Queen of England for ~fifty years. Book is fiction in that is contains dialog and examines relationships. However, much of what the book contains is documented fact.

Das Phantom: Die bisher ungeschriebene Lebe… de Susan Kay

Da das Phantom der Oper in dem berühmten Film/ Musical/ Buch schon an die 50 ist, kann man sich natürlich fragen, was es vorher gemacht hat.
Darum geht es in dem Buch und vor allem die Vorgeschichten, bis das Phantom in die Oper kommt und was es mit dem Perser auf sich hat, sind spannend und interessant.
Psychologisch erscheint mir Erik aber dennoch etwas gar grobschlächtig skizziert. Mir hat das Buch ein paar schöne Stunden beschert, aber mich nicht über die Maßen begeistert.

Devastatingly beautiful. Gut wrenching.
