Becoming Carlotta: A Biographical Novel

About Becoming Carlotta: A Biographical Novel:

Carlotta Monterey is best known for her stormy marriage to the playwright Eugene O’Neill. But she had a twenty-year career in the theater before she married O’Neill, during which she was counted among the most beautiful women in the world. Beginning in 1888, her early life and her marriages—to a Scottish aristocrat, to the son of her mother’s lover in Oakland, California, and to the famous artist and illustrator, Ralph Barton—took her from the Old West to Edwardian London and aristocratic English country life, to the Broadway theater and the tough reality of the actor’s life on the road, and to bohemian Greenwich Village and Manhattan’s arty Smart Set in the 1920s. This novel chronicles the seemingly endless ways she reinvented herself to meet the challenges of her fascinating life.
