The book explores the evolution of opera from grand mythic figures to relatable, everyday characters, highlighting Giacomo Puccini's significant role in this transformation. It emphasizes how Puccini's operas, particularly La Bohème, resonate with universal human experiences like love and loss, making them accessible to audiences. Critics may argue about the simplicity of his work compared to other composers, but the book defends Puccini's mastery in blending music, drama, and stagecraft, creating emotionally impactful narratives. The author, Luca Andrea Giordano, is an accomplished musician and musicologist.
