The author tells a lot of his personal story in this book. So, it's not solely about Rosa May. He talks of his struggles in becoming a musician and the hard road to success. I didn't like this. Then there are a packet of letters that was owned by Rosa. These were letters written to her. There was also one very short note that was written by her. This note was taken to a couple of professional graphoanalysts (handwriting analysts) and a picture is painted of Rosa's early life, personality, and demeanor. While I don't discredit the science of handwriting analysis, I find it hard to swallow that we can come up with so much based on such a short note.
