Details: Paris, 1971: A hidden floorboard reveals a diary written by Frederic Chopin in the final month of his life. Within lies the untold truth about his stormy affair with novelist George Sand -- a story history buried.
From the glittering salons of 1830s Paris to a windswept retreat in Mallorca, from passion to betrayal, Chopin's Last Manuscript weaves a tale of genius, love, and revenge. Decades later, a craftsman and a Warsaw scholar risk reputations to give Chopin back his voice.
Based on meticulous research and alive with romance and intrigue, this sweeping novel uncovers the man behind the music -- and the scandal that almost silenced him forever.
"An original, fast-paced story about one of history's most beloved composers. Chopin's Last Manuscript is an engaging mystery, a tragic love story, and a unique look into the life of a musical genius. I could not put it down." "-Bob Pritchard, author of Her Puerto Rican Smile, The Booth Brotherhood
"Beth Kellam has created a deeply satisfying story exploring the connections between a beloved composer and an equally beloved writer. Presented as a dual timeline between 1830s Paris and present-day Warsaw, Chopin's Last Manuscript draws the reader deep into the minds and hearts of its characters." --Jeannette de Beauvoir, author of Our Lady of the Dunes.
"A dazzling historical novel that brings Chopin vividly to life--funny, vulnerable, and human. From Warsaw to Vienna to Paris, his story unfolds against Europe in upheaval and culminates in a love affair with George Sand that remakes them both."-Elizabeth Winder, author of Parachute Women, Marilyn In Manhattan.
