I think I have finished my last book for 2023: A Severed Wasp by Madeleine L.Engle. The book tells the story of Katherine Forrester, now Madame Vigneras, who is in her 70s, still performing and looking back on her life. She has returned to New York after living in Paris after the war. I read the first book--The Small Rain earlier this year--where we meet Katherine as a child just coming into her own as a pianist, taking after her famous mother. I enjoyed the first book but the second one was remarkable with interwoven stories that lead to a shocking twist that ties them together at the end. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

A retired musician returns to performing in this "soul-satisfying" novel from the award-winning author of A Wrinkle in Time (Norman Lear).Now in her seventies, Katherine Vigneras, n e Forrester, has returned to New York City after a successful career touring as a concert pianist in Europe. Much has changed for Katherine: She is widowed and retired, and has lived through the harrowing years of World War II.But when she encounters an old face from her youth in Greenwich Village, Katherine finds herself agreeing to perform at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, an endeavor that proves to be unexpectedly rewarding--and challenging.Touching and thought-provoking, A Severed Wasp explores the ebbs and flows in the life of an artist, and continues the story of the singular character who began Madeleine L'Engle's accomplished career as a writer in her debut novel, The Small Rain.
