Beschreibung
Charming, moving, uplifting. Why can't all love stories be like this? Tunku Varadarajan, The Wall Street JournalThis is a charming and uplifting book. Piers MorganSeventeen-year-old schoolboy Kim is an idle drifter at one of Britain's most extraordinary institutions, Eton College - crammed with over a thousand boys and not a girl in sight. His head is full of the Falklands War and a possible army career, until the day he hears his new piano teacher, the beautiful but pained India, playing Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier. Kim's life is destined never to be the same again.An intensely passionate affair develops and he wallows in the wild and unaccustomed thrill of first love. Twenty-five years on, Kim recalls that heady summer and how their fledgling relationship was so brutally snuffed out - finished off by his enemies, by the constraints of Eton, and by his own withering jealousy. "e;The Well-Tempered Clavier"e; is the bittersweet story of a life-changing love.
