Maria Hummel, author of Still LivesThis stylish, passionate novel transports you to the gilded salons and concert halls of 1950s Paris, with two gorgeous twins, a count, and a dancer who each make big moves and mistakes for love. But the book's greatest question revolves around genius - how to grow it, to keep it, to not lose everything for its sake - and every page in Crescendo builds to its haunting and resounding answer
