Thomas Heilman <[log in to unmask]> asked about a biography of Klemperer.
Klemperer has been lucky enough to have received magnificent biographical
treatment from Peter Heyworth with "Otto Klemperer, his life & times"
published in 2 vols. by Cambridge University Press.
The vols. are split: 1885-1933 and 1933-1973 and the ISBNs are
Vol.1 0 521 49509 1
Vol.2 0 521 24488 9
(and/or as a complete set: 0 521 56538 3)
Most excellent. The 2nd volume was published posthumously in 1996 under
the editorship of John Lucas (Heyworth having died in 1991).
I have heard nothing of any paperback issue. Go for it!
