ConcertoforSentence Format: Paperback

Subtitled "An Exploration of the Musico-Erotic," this novel is an experiment in blurring the boundaries between the syntax of music and that of poetry. The sentences in question are elliptical, resembling a musical score, and tell the story of a violinist embarking upon a potentially dangerous affair with an admirer and fellow musician as their spouses, audiences, teachers, friends, and colleagues listen and wonder.
