Plot / Content: "This books is a quartet of voices, sometimes harmonious, sometimes dissonant. Three of the voices you'll hear in these pages are still living, one is now dead. It is the now silent voice that sustained the 'melody line' when the pitch of the others was off. It is to the perfect pitch of Wesley Ober that I owe the greatest debt. This book is dedicated to that quartet The late Wesley Ober, a voice from a lost stage; Robert Regal, a voice of rectitude; Carl Mason, a musical voice; Billy Hicks, a voice for grace notes. The voices are real, though the names are fictional. As well, some of the facts of the quartet's lives have been altered to protect their privacy. As one of them said to me, 'My secret is the habit of a lifetime. I've needed my secret so long that I can't imagine being without it. I'm too old to be nakedly gay.'"

Quote from this book "I'm not sure I should be talking to you. How discreet are you? Well, we can start anyway. If you've read that dreary little biography that silly man wrote about me, you know most of the facts. He did get the facts straight. Well, most of them anyway. I was at Warners from 1936 till after World War II. That was over thirty years. I free-lanced after that, a score here, a score there. Just like the old dames, I even did two horrow movies. Great fun. Now, suddenly, my scores are legitimate. I was camp in the sixties. Next year, the Pittsburgh Symphony and San Francisco Symphony will perform programs of my compositions. Nonesuch records is talking of doing a complete library of my works. My god, even the theme music from Undaunted is a disco hit." opening paragraphs "Carl Mason" Secondhand booksellers |
