Exquisite castrati singers enchant 18th-century Europe.
Cry to Heaven could be a good read for those who are interested in historical fiction that provides a unique insight into the life and experiences of castrati singers in 18th-century Europe. Rice's vivid descriptions of the grandeur and decadence of Venice and Naples against the looming shadow of the Vesuvius would transport the readers to another world. The novel is not only about the music and the castrati, but also about vengeance, love, and the struggle for identity and acceptance in a society that abhors their existence. Readers can expect a beautifully written, immersive, and at times, disturbing tale that stays with them long after the last page.
