My Phantom: The Memoir of Christine Daaé

My Phantom is the memoir of Christine Daaé, the soprano immortalized in Gaston Leroux's The Phantom of the Opera. Christine's memoir unmasks an enduring legend with the stories of a talented orphan struggling toward stardom and a throwaway boy who conquers opera's greatest stage. My Phantom chronicles the collaboration of a musical master and his exceptional student who rescue each other from loneliness while striving to reach the pinnacle of their art only to find themselves trapped in a love triangle that destines one to remain forever alone. My Phantom unfolds in the world's most intriguing opera house in Belle Époque Paris, where Impressionists inspire a freewheeling spirit and opera singers are the first global superstars. Christine and her lovers - the mysterious Phantom and the aristocrat Raoul - personify the élan of glittering era whose artistic ferment shapes their lives forever.
