Letters and Diaries of Kathleen Ferrier

Fifty years ago, Kathleen Ferrier, the greatest lyric contralto Britain has ever produced, lost her courageous battle with breast cancer. Get Letters and Diaries of Kathleen Ferrier literature books for free.
Her name endures to this day, for she struck a chord with a wide-ranging public - in concerts, on records and on the radio - despite a career which lasted barely ten years. Within a decade this former telephone exchange operator was singing on stage at Covent Garden or before royalty at private parties. She was surely fun to know: this collection of 300+ letters and twelve years of her personal diaries give a sunny picture of her life in the muted post-war years. Her indefinable personality was a mix of extreme modesty and self-determined ambition, and a mischievously blunt sense of earthy Lancastrian humour. Check Letters and Diaries of Kathleen Ferrier our best literature books for 2013. All books are available in pdf format and downloadable from rapidshare, 4shared, and mediafire.
