Histoire
Ann Patchett’s award winning, New York Times best-selling Bel Canto balances themes of love and crisis as disparate characters learn that music is their only common language. As in Pratchett’s other novels, including Truth & Beauty and The Magician’s Assistant, the author’s lyrical prose and lucid imagination make Bel Canto a captivating story of strength and frailty, love and imprisonment, and an inspiring tale of transcendent romance.

Another great story from Ann Patchett!
I’ve loved all her books! The only reason I gave this “4” instead of “5” is that I liked her others even more.

Stilted read
The story may be good, but it's difficult to listen past the stilted read. I'm finding it difficult to listen past the first chapters. I don't recommend buying this audio version.
