For more than 40 years Nana Mouskouri has been a global singing sensation. From her earliest childhood memories of mid-1930s Greece, she tells of life as a child, experiencing the horrors of war and privation, victimised by bitter parental discord and stigmatised by her father's addiction to gambling. She was a shy, inhibited teenager with a passion for singing, a girl compelled to choose between her love of classical music and her fascination with popular song. As a highly successful adult, she has been racked by uncertainty and the torments of love, a woman struggling to balance music - her raison d'etre - with her role as wife and mother. Here she describes the life of the star we all know, from her beginnings in the nightclubs of Athens to her triumphs on the world's most glittering stages.
