As a classical musician, I was looking forward to a back-stage "tell it all" about the foibles and crazy habits of musicians and conductors. Instead we are treated to an X-rated tale of the author's life starting in high school and continuing on for many years.
I was more interested in the ensembles she was playing with than the men she was sleeping with. She obviously is a gifted musician, but the story she told was not the one I wanted to read.
