520    The riveting story of the rivalry between the two most 
       renowned actresses of the nineteenth century: legendary 
       Sarah Bernhardt, whose eccentricity on and off the stage 
       made her the original diva, and mystical Eleonora Duse, 
       who broke all the rules to popularize the natural style of
       acting we celebrate today. Audiences across Europe and the
       Americas clamored to see the divine Sarah Bernhardt swoon-
       and she gave them their money's worth. The world's first 
       superstar, she traveled with a chimpanzee named Darwin and
       a pet alligator that drank champagne, shamelessly 
       supplementing her income by endorsing everything from 
       aperitifs to beef bouillon, and spreading rumors that she 
       slept in a coffin to better understand the macabre 
       heroines she played. Eleonora Duse shied away from the 
       spotlight. Born to a penniless family of itinerant 
       troubadours, she disappeared into the characters she 
       portrayed-channeling their spirits, she claimed. Her new, 
       empathetic style of acting revolutionized the theater-and 
       earned her the ire of Sarah Bernhardt in what would become
       the most tumultuous theatrical showdown of the nineteenth 
       century. Bernhardt and Duse seduced each other's lovers, 
       stole one another's favorite playwrights, and took to the 
       world's stages to outperform their rival in her most 
       iconic roles. A scandalous, enormously entertaining 
       history full of high drama and low blows, Playing to the 
       Gods is the perfect "book for all of us who binge-watched 
       Feud" (Daniel de Visé, author of Andy & Don: The Making of
       a Friendship and a Classic American TV Show).
