This review is from: Duet; The Story Of Clara And Robert Schumann [First Edition] (Hardcover)
This unusual and hard to find biographical novel concerns Clara Wieck, of Liepzig, Sweden, an infant prodigy when the great composer, Robert Schumann began to study music with her father. He was a welcome guest at the family home until he proposed marriage to Clara - when her father banished him! He didn't want anything to spoil her talent and gift to the world.For 4 years she continued to give concerts and recitals, before realizing that she had to completely defy her father to marry her one true love. She was in her teens! What a way to ruin her life and her artwork! But this author seems to think it was fine and dandy, so, whatever. Rare Swedish novel written in English.
