false 3571101 7 <B>A haunting novel of loss, love, and human connection from the author of <I>Astrid & Veronika</I></B><BR><BR> Linda Olsson’s first novel, <I>Astrid & Veronika</I>, introduced readers to her gorgeous prose, and her extraordinary understanding of human relationships. With her second novel, she once again charts that terrain in a novel that also explores the significant impact of history on individual lives. In <I>Sonata for Miriam</I>, two events occur that will change composer Adam Anker’s life forever. Embarking on a journey that ranges from New Zealand to Poland, and then Sweden, Anker not only uncovers his parents’ true fate during World War II, but he also finally faces the consequences of an impossible choice he was forced to make twenty years before—a choice that changed the trajectory of his life. 3613333 2008 Sonata for Miriam: A Novel total:159|5:29|4:53|3:49|2:19|1:9| 159 551 316 64 3571101 0143114700 9780143114703 156 62 3.47 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255985320m/3571101.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3571101.Sonata_for_Miriam_A_Novel 5 3 false Sat Mar 21 13:11:47 -0700 2009 Sat Mar 21 13:11:57 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3571101 0143114700 9780143114703 156 62 3.47 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255985320m/3571101.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3571101.Sonata_for_Miriam_A_Novel 0 1 false Tue Feb 17 13:24:11 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 17 13:25:01 -0800 2009
