Description
Employing Rachmaninov's Second Symphony as the musical basis for the story of an affair, this novel features an English professor, who represents the elegant, and a young woman, who portrays the brisk, the primary elements of the symphony. Add to the tale's allusions to the sea, which the music is meant to portray, and you have a tale that should interest many readers, even those not readily interested in classical music.
