Opera Shop host Darren Hellwege talks with Caitlyn Vincent, author of the new book "Opera Wars: Inside the World of Opera and the Battles For It's Future."

What problems are there and how are they best addressed? The book is an unflinching look at the art, but is also full of fun insider stories about the drama both on stage and behind the scenes.
