Daniel Mason

A New York Times Notable Book A San Francisco Chronicle, San Jose Mercury News, and Los Angeles Times Best Book of the Year

A gripping and resonant novel… . It immerses the reader in a distant world with startling immediacy and ardor… . Riveting. -Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times

In 1886 a shy, middle-aged piano tuner named Edgar Drake receives an unusual commission
from the British War Office: 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.
