Anna May Wong by Clarence Sinclair Bull, circa late 1920s
You’re book sounds so Interesting !!
Like what?? Sapphic opera singers omgg
I soooo hope you do get published one day cause there’s no way I wouldn’t want to read that!
Are they a little competitive and obsessive? I’m lowk so invested and I fear I’ll never get to read it
You’re going to write an amazing book and it will be published and recognized as one of the great works of the 21st century 🪷
omg this made my day HAHDHD 😭 i would say the competition is mostly one sided; they're vocal students at a music conservatory and the inciting incident is that serafina, the insane perfectionist, is cast as the understudy while antonina, the shy unassuming new student, is cast as carmen.
at first, serafina despises her for "stealing" the role, but it very quickly spirals into obsession and longing. really, that is just the beginning! and the second book goes into their on and off relationship throughout their professional opera careers. ahh i could honestly talk abt them forever 😅 anyway here r some sketches xx (first one is based on opera atelier's 2012(?) prod. of le nozze di figaro)
'Banquet of Mermaids' by Ryoko Kimura
Here's to more lesbianism in opera in 2026
We're nearly 5 months in and there hasn't been nearly enough
as of today its been one year since i finished the first draft of my novel(s) abt toxic obsessive lesbian opera singers and i've been in editing hell ever since :')

so scared that when i publish my book, older and more knowledgable operaheads wont like it but one of my more delusional desires i'm manifesting for myself is it'll be moderately successful and renew public interest in opera + classical music as a whole and i'll get invited to la scala and and and
