It considers the multiple facets of Mina’s star persona and the mechanisms of its construction over time, from her emergence in the late 1950s to the present. [...] Ultimately Haworth’s excellent book points forward to many more meanings of Mina, yet to be explored.' -- Catherine O’Rawe, Modern Italy Author InformationRachel Haworth is a researcher of Italian popular music and culture of the twentieth century.
