From Publishers Weekly The last quarter-century of Liszt’s life was filled with dramatic turns， contrasts and emotional storms， like the Hungarian composer’s romantic music. The buoyant man of the world retreated into a monastery near Rome (1863-1865)， emerging as a Roman Catholic cleric. His elder daughter， Blandine， died from a breast operation， and Liszt tried his best to break up the adulterous relationship of his younger daughter， Cosima， with composer Richard Wagner， whom she married after concealing the out-of-wedlock births of three children by Wagner from her first husband， pianist and Wagner-worshiper Hans von Bulow. Shuttling endlessly between Rome， Weimar， Budapest， Paris， Vienna， overworked， overdrinking Liszt suffered a nervous breakdown in 1877 and struggled with suicidal impulses. Polish princess Carolyne von Sayn-Wittgenstein， whose wedding to Liszt was canceled at the last minute in 1861 because of her family’s meddling， betrayed him in 1881 by inserting an anti-Semitic chapter into Liszt’s revised book on Bohemian music. In this final volume of an extraordinary biography， Walker， a professor of music in Ontario， shows how Liszt’s universal despair gave rise to the pathbreaking， proto-modernist music of his later years. A rarity among composers’ biographies， this full-bodied portrait combines lively writing and impeccable scholarship. Photos.
