Delving into family secrets and lies, he discovers how extraordinary events filtered through time to propel his unlikely but successful career in opera.Evocatively written and featuring circus stars, fascists and faked deaths, Do I Bark Like a Dog? is a deeply moving testimony to Volpe''s mother and her family, and an extraordinary journey into the heart of a life that has left an indelible mark on the world of opera.
