Maria: A Novel of Maria von Trapp Discover the real story behind the iconic name and songs. Michelle Moran's novel brings Maria von Trapp to life in a dramatic and immersive tale that explores her journey from novice nun to devoted mother. In 1950s Austria, Maria is approached by Oscar Hammerstein to write the lyrics for a musical about her life. As she shares her story with his secretary, Fran, the lines between fact and fiction begin to blur. The novel delves into Maria's experiences as a young woman, her marriage proposal, and her family's struggle to survive during World War II. A powerful and redemptive story, Maria is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the life of this remarkable woman.
