“German cultural historian Singer draws on unpublished letters she unearthed in Switzerland to reimagine the tumultuous love affair between phenomenal pianist Vladimir Horowitz and his young student Nico Kaufmann … What emerges is a portrait of gay life and limitations in the mid-1900s, the era’s painful political upheavals, and a great pianist on edge … An intriguing look at passion, history, and culture, for more than classical music fans.”
