Description

The Song Collector by Natasha Solomons is a poignant tale of passion and music, of roots and ancient songs. When Fox's beloved wife passes away, he finds himself unable to write music again, but his four-year-old grandson's piano prodigy skills bring back the melody. As Fox re-engages with life, he must confront an old family rift from decades earlier. The story begins with Fox's return to Hartgrove Hall after the war, where he and his brothers aim to save their once grand home from ruin. However, the arrival of beautiful wartime singer Edie Rose on the last night of 1946 tangles the threads of love and duty, leading to a shattering betrayal. With poignancy, lyricism and humour, Solomons tells a captivating tale of joy and creative renewal in the aftermath of grief, as Fox learns that it is never too late to seek forgiveness.
