Whether it’s music, concert management, celebrity, or just plain life that catches your interest, this novel about a superstar violinist will stay with you. In residence with the Chicago Symphony, Nick Raze, violinist, meets a family whose friendship causes him to recollect the pain of his early years. The story flows easily and is carried by the wonderful voice of Christopher Lane. If there’s an “American sound,” Lane has it. He speaks lightly, clearly, and with the greatest warmth for every character. His voice is not studied, yet the “t’s” and “d’s” are all present. He sounds like a friend who reads in that comfortable way of a person who wants you to hear and understand, giving the listener a beautiful experience. J.P.
