Opis
The Lazaro family are carpenters who would rather be piano-makers. In the dusty back room of their carpentry shop in Lisbon is the 'piano cemetery', filled with broken-down pianos that provide the spare parts needed for repairing and rebuilding instruments all over the city. It is a mysterious and magical place, a place of solace, a dreaming place and, above all, a trysting place for lovers. Peixoto weaves the tragic true story of the marathon-runner, Francisco Lazaro, into a rich narrative of love, betrayal, domestic happiness and dashed hopes. 'A superb family saga' The Times 'Almost unbearably moving' Financial Times 'A rolling, elegiac and undoubtedly musical novel' Metro 'A story of sex and treachery, of ambition and frustration, of a mostly thwarted desire to please ... Peixoto has an acute ear for cadence, a sharp eye for the luminous image and a good nose for the pungent' Independent
