«El sonido de la vida» is the family saga novel by Alex George, published by Maeva in paperback (448 pages, in Spanish).
Set at the beginning of the 20th century, it begins when Frederick and Jette meet in Hanover, Germany: he captivates her with his gift for music, and she recognises in a Puccini melody the man of her life. Determined to start anew, they emigrate to the United States and settle in Missouri, where their story unfolds over four generations and the music that accompanies the whole century.
The English original, "A Good American", was published in 2012; this Spanish edition appeared in 2013 under the Embolsillo imprint of Maeva.
For readers of family sagas and historical fiction: the music of the 20th century acts as a thread running through a story that spans four generations.
