Publisher's Synopsis

Will appeal to general readers of memoir, especially those interested in narratives of women's lives, artistic practice, and mentorship, as well as musicians, amateur and not.

Universal theme of returning to a lost interest/passion: a book for people who think it's too late to begin again, or who want to recapture a passion they think they've lost or outgrown.

For readers of Oliver Sacks' Musicophilia, Glen Kurtz's Practicing: A Musician's Return to Music, Alan Rusbridger's Play It Again: An Amateur Against the Impossible

Contemporary resonance with #MeToo: in part, this is the story of challenges faced by women who aspire to careers in the arts

Robyn Sarah is a dual US-Canadian citizen, with ties to New York and Vermont. A portion of the memoir takes place at a Vermont artist's retreat.

Excerpts have appeared in Ploughshares and The Hudson Review, and additional US excerpts are anticipated. Early interest expressed by NYTBR editor.

A poet, Sarah has won the the Governor General's Award and the Canadian Jewish Literary Award, and her work has been widely anthologized, including in the Norton Anthology of Poetry
