«Vissi d'amore: diário do Barão de Scarpia» is a novel by Paola Capriolo published in 1994 by Edições Asa in paperback (140 pages, in Portuguese).
The novel adopts the point of view of Baron Scarpia, antagonist of Puccini's Tosca, and turns him into the author of an imaginary diary. From that record, Paola Capriolo builds a psychological inquiry into desire, power, and fascination with beauty, far from the original melodrama.
For those who appreciate musical intertextuality and literary reinterpretations of operatic characters.
Paola Capriolo is an Italian novelist and translator.
