Aria For A Phoenix
This is not a love story. This is a reclamation. Paris, 1968. They called them the lovers of the century: Maria Callas and Aristotle Onassis. The voice of a century and the man who thought he owned it. She gave up everything for him. He married Jackie Kennedy. In the silence that follows, Maria breaks. When she wakes again, something is wrong... or perhaps finally right. Aria Callo, a woman from the edge of oblivion, opens her eyes and finds herself trapped in the body of the most tragic voice of the century. But this is not a love story. This is what comes after the myth collapses. It is not forgiveness. It is not silence. It's a resurrection. And it will be magnificent.
