Publishers Description: The love affair of Maria Calla and Aristotle Onassis. Onassis, one-time Anatolian refugee, built one of the worlds greatest shipping fortunes. Callas, defiantly Greek yet Brooklyn-born, was acclaimed as the Voice of the Century. Together, they shared a love that was passionate, volatile and ill-fated - yet indelible.
Flashing back from a day-by-day recreation of the infamous 1959 cruise aboard Onassiss yacht during which the union was cemented, we then come to understand as never before the pattern of their life together - and how the singers contentment turned to heartbreak when the tycoon married Jackie Kennedy. Yet Aristos feelings for Maria persisted long after their estrangement . . .
