520    Giacomo Puccini, composer of some of the world's most popular operas, was also a literary person who based his librettos on existing works of literature. The author argues that the majority of Puccini's operas compose a grand cycle that finds its roots in the romance genre of 12th century France. This book offers fresh perspective on Puccini's legacy.
