The Weight of a Piano by Chris Cander
A dazzling exploration of how the human heart can both break and be restored
“Heart-wrenchingReaders stay griped by the questions this novel raises about the power of fetishized possessions, about the effects of family members on each other, about the difficulties of finding love and recognizing it. The settings are gripping too: from Brezhnev’s Russia to late-20th century California, cold Romanian forest to torrid Death Valley.” * The Washington Times *
“Cander grabs the reader in her bravura, thickly detailed opening pages.” * Kirkus Reviews (starred review) *
“Cander brilliantly and convincingly expresses music and visual art in her writing, capturing both within a near-alien but surprisingly stunning landscape.” * Publishers Weekly (starred review) *
"Gorgeous and melancholy." * Dallas Morning Star *
