Helmuth Krausser e i dčmoni di Puccini: nuovo capolavoro per l'autore di Me
2009-04-23 20:50:00 Helmuth Krausser I demoni di Puccini Nuovo capolavoro per l’autore di Melodien di Iannozzi Giuseppe Che Giacomo Puccini, bisbetico quanto geniale compositore, fosse anche un impenitente dongiovanni oggi non è più mistero per nessuno, e ce lo conferma Helmuth Krausser con il romanzo “I Demoni di Puccini”.
