The Secret Life Of Glenn Gould

Michael Clarkson

Long after his death, Glenn Gould still lures new listeners to his piano, connecting with them on a haunting, personal level. But when he was known as the world’s greatest pianist in the 1950s and 1960s, just who was Gould playing for? His audience? Himself? His demanding mother? All are likely true, but he was also richly inspired by - and bared his soul at the keyboard to - a secret society of women, the girlfriends who stirred his hard-to-fetch emotions. The Secret Life of Glenn Gould will be the first true expose about Gould, who until now has been assumed to be asexual, lonely, and egocentric - by examining his love and soul-mate relationships.
