Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Beautifully explores topics not often addressed. . . . Claire's need for affection and acceptance leads her into entirely believable and utterly sad encounters, while the strength she musters carries her through to an uplifting conclusion. Booklist (starred review) After seventeen-year-old Claire Alalays fathers death, only music has helped her channel her grief. Claire likes herself best when she plays his old piano, a welcome escape from the sadnessand her traditional Filipino mothers prayer groups. In the hopes of earning a college scholarship, Claire auditions for Paul Avon, a prominent piano teacher, who agrees to take Claire as a pupil. Soon Claire loses herself in Pauls world and his way of digging into a compositions emotional core. She practices constantly, foregoing a social life, but no matter how hard she works or how well she plays, it seems impossible to gain Pauls approval, let alone his affection. Author Cynthia Salaysay composes a moving, beautifully written portrait of rigorous perfectionism, sexual awakening, and the challenges of self-acceptance. Now in paperback with an updated cover, Private Lessons is a timely and vital story that delves into a complicated student/teacher relationship, as well as class and cultural differences, with honesty and grace. "In a standout debut for the #MeToo era, a young pianist devotes herself to her art and to the demanding, charismatic teacher she idolizes."--Provided by publisher.
