The piano tuner

Mason, Daniel.

The piano tuner Daniel Mason. - London : Picador, 2002. - 356 p. :1 map ;25 cm.

In 1886 a shy, middle-aged piano tuner named Edgar Drake receives an unusual commission from the British War to travel to the remote jungles of northeast Burma and there repair a rare piano belonging to an eccentric army surgeon who has proven mysteriously indispensable to the imperial design. From this irresistible beginning, The Piano Tuner launches readers into a world of seductive, vibrantly rendered characters, and enmeshes them in an unbreakable spell of storytelling.
