Awarded the Prix des libraires by France’s booksellers, a
universal story about music and restoring one’s faith in others
amid the aftermath of tremendous loss. Tokyo, 1938. An amateur
quartet, led by the compassionate Yu, gathers to practice.
Suddenly, their rehearsal is brutally interrupted by military
police. In the ensuing skirmish, Yu’s violin is smashed while his
son, Rei, witnesses his father’s arrest. He will never see him
again. Salvaging his father’s instrument, Rei escapes thanks to a
mysterious lieutenant. Paris, 2003. Raised in France, Rei–now
Jacques–has dedicated his life to the broken violin’s repair:
studying music, becoming an apprentice, and, eventually, a luthier.
However, despite his effort to rehabilitate the damage of years
ago, he struggles to reconcile his past with the present. Yet, when
a world-class violinist, connected to the lieutenant that helped
him as a boy, appears, Jacques’ past is rekindled and he
perseveres in a final bid to heal. Fractured Soul is a parable of
what once was lost and what there stands to be gained–a story of
immense beauty and ferocious courage. Translated from the French by
Alison Anderson
