Showing results for "Ariel Dorfman" in Mystery, Thriller & Suspense

In 1789 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart visits the grave of Johann Sebastian Bach in Leipzig, looking for a sign, a signal, an answer to an enigma that has haunted him since childhood: Was Bach murdered by a famous oculist? And years later, was Handel a victim of the same doctor? Allegro follows his investigation, from the salons of London to the streets of Paris, recreating an enthralling and turbulent time, full of rogues and brilliant composers, charlatans and presumptuous nobles. Running parallel to this search is the rise of Mozart, his knowledge and fame, his trials and losses.

¿Fueron la ceguera y la muerte de Händel y de Bach causadas por el mismo médico oculista? El joven Mozart visita la tumba de Bach en Leipzig cuestionándose este enigma, mismo que lo obliga a una labor detectivesca que termina por tejer una novela breve en la que los tonos y tempos musicales (allegro ma non troppo, minuetos y adagios) conviven armónicamente con la novela histórica y el thriller tramados por Ariel Dorfman
