Additional information
Selected as a New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice, this novel offers a nuanced portrait of a musician deeply engaged in the complexities of her art. Drawing on her own musical training, Hoffman writes about musicianship and musical creativity and thought in order to interpose the question of art, artistic form and life with the political uneasiness of current events. Bringing together a gifted concert pianist and a Chechen exile, the novel intricately weaves together questions of politics, creativity and form.
