The Nightingale's Sonata
Author: Thomas Wolf
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1643131621
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 433
Book Description
*Winner of the Sophie Brody Medal* A moving and uplifting history set to music that reveals the rich life of one of the first internationally renowned female violinists. Spanning generations, from the shores of the Black Sea to the glittering concert halls of New York, The Nightingale's Sonata is a richly woven tapestry centered around violin virtuoso Lea Luboshutz. Like many poor Jews, music offered an escape from the predjudices that dominated society in the last years of the Russian Empire. But Lea’s dramatic rise as an artist was further accentuated by her scandalous relationship with the revolutionary Onissim Goldovsky. As the world around them descends in to chaos, between revolution and war, we follow Lea and her family from Russia to Europe and eventually, America. We cross paths with Pablo Casals, Isadora Duncan, Emile Zola and even Leo Tolstoy. The little girl from Odessa will eventually end up as one of the founding faculty of the prestigious Curtis Institute of Music, but along the way she will lose her true love, her father, and watch a son die young. The Iron Curtain would rise, but through it all, she plays on. Woven throughout this luminous odyssey is the story is Cesar Franck’s “Sonata for Violin and Piano.” As Lea was one of the first-ever internationally recognized female violinists, it is fitting that this pioneer was one of the strongest advocates for this young boundary-pushing composer and his masterwork.

Raised by intelligent, language-using wolves, Firekeeper had to learn to cope with human society and what initially seemed like its unendurable complexity -- and discovered that for someone raised in a wolf pack, the politics of a royal court were neither unmanageably complex nor wholly unfamiliar. Now, the happy ending of "Through Wolf's Eyes" has proved to have complicated consequences. The power balance of the neighboring lands is threatened by the prospect of a unified kingdom of Hawk Haven and Bright Bay, and new intrigues abound. The rulers of Bright Bay turn out to have been hoarding a small collection of powerful and forbidden magical artifacts... which Queen Gustin took with her when she abdicated, intending to use them to restore her former power. Melina Shield is still scheming to get control of them, and she's older, smarter, and more devious than Queen Gustin. And the older, smarter, and even more devious civil service of neighboring New Kelvin would like to get their hands on that magic as well... Which will make life very hard for Firekeeper.
