The Page Turner by David Leavitt

At the age of eighteen Paul Porterfield dreams of playing piano at the world's great concert halls, yet the closest he's come has been to turn pages for his idol, Richard Kennington, a former prodigy who is entering middle age. The two begin a love affair that affects their lives in ways neither could have predicted. Absorbing from start to finish (The New Yorker), The Page Turner testifies to the tenacity of the human spirit and the resiliency of the human heart.

David Leavitt's fiction has been shortlisted for the IMPAC Dublin Award and has been a finalist for the PEN/Faulkner Prize, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and the LA Times Fiction Prize. His work has appeared in journals such as the New Yorker, the New York Times, Harper's, and Vogue, among others. He is a professor of English at the University of Florida and the editor of the literary magazine Subtropics. He lives in Gainesville, Florida.
