Summary: An authentic life!
Comment: Here is an authentic man of genius! To read Yehudi Menuhin is an experience comparable to hearing him play the Chaconne, itself an experience that bears no easy comparisons. Every page of this book, and indeed of any number of his writing excursions (the magnificent essay 'Peace and Culture' given by him in his association with UNESCO and the interviews with David Dubal come to mind), bursts with a vital intelligence and egalitarian humanity uncommon to modern man. This is a revised edition of his original memoirs, updated to the present. Everything is here, the profound thought of one of the truly humane artists of the twentieth century, the magnificent story of his family, his parents and gifted sisters, his early life, the splendid accomplishments in the true service of humanity that have marked his later life so deeply. One is compelled to comment upon the nature of the family into which he was born, so perfect an incubator for one such as Yehudi Menuhin, an authentic genius requiring an authentic environment in which to develop. Menuhin doesn't disappoint the reader, he amply and brilliantly illumines the story of his family in a devoted and balanced account of lives of high human principles fully lived , and proof of the essential role his family played in his life is clear in the full measure of this man's life and work. Anyone with an interest in authentic human philosophy, in an examination of those elements that characterize the authentic role of the artist in society, will find this book a joy! Nothing forced here, nothing of pretense. This book is but the calm and elegant persuasion of a consummate human being and a genuine artist.
