In Menotti, biographer John Gruen presents an intimate portrait of composer Gian Carlo Menotti, best known for his operas Amahl and the Night Visitors and The Consul. Gruen draws on personal interviews and archival material to illuminate Menotti's artistic evolution, personal relationships, and contributions to American opera. The New York Times praised the book for its “unusually candid and sympathetic view of a complex musical figure.”
