Summary

In Margriet de Moor's novel, a love story unfolds amidst the carriages, churches, and dusky harbors of eighteenth-century Naples. For an entire opera season, Carlotta, a Neapolitan duchess, sits in her candle-lit box held in the spell of a world in which knowledge, beauty, and love collide: music. She is captive to her passion for Gasparo, the tantalizing castrato with whom she has been smitten since their childhood together in a small Italian village. When Gasparo leaves the village to undergo the operation that will preserve his divine soprano voice into adulthood, Carlotta's passion subsides until, years later, she again encounters him, now an adult opera sensation with his physical beauty and power to seduce intact.
