Description
Engagingly written and elegantly illustrated, So to Speak contains a series of practical exercises for the voice inspired by Bernhardt’s work with actors, singers and writers. The book also leads the reader on a journey to the source of speech: the inner self’s desire to communicate and to be understood.
