À propos de cet audio

 This brilliant novel with universal resonance tells the story of three people trying to survive in a city rife with the extreme fear of desperate times, and of the sorrowing cellist who plays undaunted in their midst.

One day a shell lands in a bread line and kills twenty-two people as the cellist watches from a window in his flat. He vows to sit in the hollow where the mortar fell and play Albinoni’s Adagio once a day for each of the twenty-two victims. The Adagio had been re-created from a fragment after the only extant score was firebombed in the Dresden Music Library, but the fact that it had been rebuilt by a different composer into something new and worthwhile gives the cellist hope.

Meanwhile, Kenan steels himself for his weekly walk through the dangerous streets to collect water for his family on the other side of town, and Dragan, a man Kenan doesn’t know, tries to make his way towards the source of the free meal he knows is waiting. Both men are almost paralyzed with fear, uncertain when the next shot will land on the bridges or streets they must cross, unwilling to talk to their old friends of what life was once like before divisions were unleashed on their city. Then there is “Arrow,” the pseudonymous name of a gifted female sniper, who is asked to protect the cellist from a hidden shooter who is out to kill him as he plays his memorial to the victims.

In this beautiful and unforgettable novel, Steven Galloway has taken an extraordinary, imaginative leap to create a story that speaks powerfully to the dignity and generosity of the human spirit under extraordinary duress. Fiction Fiction de genre Fiction littéraire Historique Militaire

Loved this novel. I listened while following along with my hard copy. I found a couple of spots in the hard copy that did not match or were completely left out of the audiobook. The fifth line of page 195; there is a full sentence that is missing from the audiobook. There is also another error...

Great novel!

It took me a bit to understand where it’s going, but once I did, I really appreciated the story. It’s so well written and I loved how it emphasized the humanity of people living in war by showing the impact of art on their spirit.

great performance by Steven but annoyingly switches between 3 different characters through out the book and 2 out of the 3 characters nothing of importance ever happens to them witch makes it kind of a boring book
