PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION
This gorgeous first novel transports the reader into the world of 19th-century colonial Burma, its traditions, trappings, personalities and politics. Mason's complex, absorbing tale has, at its center, an unlikely young man commanded by the British War office to travel to Burma to take care of the piano of the decidedly eccentric (but valuable) Surgeon-Major Anthony Carroll.
