Geniuses of the American Musical Theatre: The Composers and Lyricists ReviewI had high hopes for this book when I bought it. But the old adage about not judging a book by its cover is true. The photos, layout, and table of contents were all so inviting. As much as I looked forward to reading this book, I could not make it past the middle of the second chapter. The writing is high school level at best. Simple sentences are strung together without much variety, flow, or cohesion. Many paragraphs are just a sentence or two long, touching on an aspect or work of a composer before abruptly dropping the matter and moving on to the next. The book is filled with unsubstantiated claims ("Life in Hollywood was free and easy. The people in the movie industry wandered in and out of each others' homes") and amateurish pseudo-psycho-analysis ("[Sondheim's] emotions were mangled as child and he spent most of his life fighting against any emotional attachments that would hurt him once again.") This book literally gave me a headache. I will think twice before buying another book from the editors at Applause Books.Geniuses of the American Musical Theatre: The Composers and Lyricists Overview
