In the Victorian era, Edgar Drake, an expert piano tuner, is summoned by the British army to travel to Burma and repair an Erard piano. This instrument is crucial for medical commander Anthony Carroll, who uses it to pacify local tribes through music and poetry. Drake embarks on a long journey, discovering fascinating landscapes and characters, but upon reaching his destination, he faces a complex and disturbing reality. Captivated by the local culture, Drake must confront his own roots and accept his destiny.
This novel transports the reader to a world of myths and experiences, where music serves as a bridge between seemingly irreconcilable cultures. Daniel Mason weaves a story of self-discovery and culture clash in an exotic and mysterious setting.
