New York.: Scribner., 1996. First edition. 1st printing.. Hard cover. Fine in very good dust jacket. Light spine end damage to jacket.. 1 Cloth and paper over boards. 381 p. Audience: General/trade. A literary novel spanning a century and the American continent. It begins in 1890, however, in Sicily, where an accordion craftsman completes his finest instrument, and dreams of owning a music store in America. He travels with his daughter, 11, arriving in New Orleans. Within a year, he is murdered by an anti-Italian lynch mob. It is the accordion that carries the story, next to a community of German American immigrants in Iowa. Changing hands, the accordion travels state to state among various immigrants, revealing a harshly racist American culture. While each immigrant musician loses language, identity, traditions, the accordion and its music carries the voices of many. Annie Proulx is an expert storyteller.
