«Farinelli il castrato» is the biographical novel by Andrée Corbiau, published by Martínez Roca in paperback (191 pages, in Spanish).
Biographical novel following Carlo Broschi, known as Farinelli, a castrato singer whose voice amazed eighteenth-century Europe. Between baroque opera, courts and personal passions, it portrays his rise to fame from 1728 and the humiliation tied to his condition: only his singing allows him to affirm his dignity.
Andrée Corbiau was co-writer of the film by Gérard Corbiau, winner of the Golden Globe. This edition is the novel of that film. Translation by Manuel Serrat Crespo.
For readers interested in music, history and fictionalised biographies, and for those who have seen Gérard Corbiau's film.
