Laurence Dreyfus: Parsifal's Seduction, Gebunden

Klappentext

A Jewish conductor caught between adulation and anti-Semitism - Parsifal's Seduction takes you into the world of Hermann Levi, who made history as a close friend of Richard Wagner. Between musical devotion and inner turmoil, a fascinating portrait of the 19th century unfolds. While Anna Ettlinger is supposed to record his life story for a Berlin weekly , Hermann opens his heart and lets her share in his most intimate conflicts: his friendship with Brahms, his complex relationship with Wagner, and his struggle with his Jewish identity in an increasingly anti-Semitic society. The novel masterfully combines historical facts with fiction, creating a multi-layered picture of an artist whose love of music leads him to cross personal and moral boundaries. For lovers of sophisticated historical novels and anyone interested in the intersection of art, religion and identity.
