or maybe, rather than worrying about histories verdict or feminism's struggles, Mozart's sister. Nan Mozart, grew tired of the Father's, Mother's and brother Wolfgang's bathroom humor, grew to be embarrassed as performing as an organ grinder's monkey on a leash for the spiritless pre-French revolution nobility of Europe; and struck a blow for individual rights and went her own way, refusing the quest for fame and fortune, as worshiped by the Father, and let her beloved younger brother have the accolades: him write Figaro, while she escaped into learning to sew, knit, clean house and tend children.
