First impressions?
Misleading, of course. As always. But unforgettable.....
A miracle was occurring. In the span of one lunchtime, music, the universal common language, would come to provide me with permanent protection in the schoolyard, and a safe conduct pass into even the darkest corners of the Covered Area.
Coming of age novels can be tedious and formulaic. And certainly there are some predictable elements in Maestro. However overall I really enjoyed this book. A perfect holiday read. (I read most of it reclining in a spa bath.)
