about this author
"Charbonnier’s dialogue in this debut novel is lively, while her narrative voice is wonderfully droll at times, moving at others. Her characters, ranging from a baron who spouts bad poetry to the mercurial Mozart, are vivid..."

"Combining an extraordinary capacity for psychological acuteness and a passion for music, in this excellent book Charbonnier fathoms the depths of complex emotional dynamics, grasping the hidden meanings within..."
