Sonata for Miriam is a slim, elegant novel by Linda Olsson, author of Astrid and Veronika.
Sonata takes us on both a physical and emotional journey with Adam, who has just lost his daughter Miriam in an accident in New Zealand. He returns to Poland where he was born, in search of his past and then to Sweden where he was raised.
Reading the novel is like listening to the different movements in a piece of music. Olsson's writing is spare and lyrical, she guides us on our journey, but leaves many details for the reader to imagine. I have fully enjoyed both of her novels.
