Hi there,

I am looking for books to read with piano as the theme. Anyone has ideas for good books, besides the Grand Obssession book by Perri Knize?

They can be books about pianists, too.

Thanks! \:\)

Wasn't there a book called "The Piano Shop on the Left Bank" or something like that?

My son gave me a book called "The Piano Teacher" by Robert Tanenbaum. It is True Crime and IMO it was very good!

The Piano Shop On The Left Bank was an excellent read.

Body and Soul is an absolutely stunning book about a child prodigy - his life and career. One of my all time favorite books - I think my husband, also a pianist, is now reading it for the fourth time.
