Winner Of The Mavis Gallant Prize For Nonfiction And The Mcauslan First Book Prize, The Cello Suites Weaves Together Three Dramatic Narratives: The Disappearance Of Bach'S Manuscript In The Eighteenth Century; Pablo Casals'S Discovery And Popularization Of The Music In Spain In The Latenineteenth Century; And Siblin'S Infatuation With The Suites In The Present Day.
