From New York Times bestselling author Eliot Schrefer comes an
exuberant YA historical coming-of-age novel about a rising star
French pianist, navigating his way into high society as he explores
his sexuality. Perfect for fans of Last Night at the Telegraph Club
and The Gentleman’s Gide to Vice and Virtue. They say Léon
Delafosse will be France’s next great pianist. But despite his
being the youngest student ever accepted into the prestigious Paris
Conservatory, there’s no way an impoverished musician can make
his way in 1890s Paris without an outside patron. Young gossip
columnist Marcel Proust takes Léon under his wing, and the boys
game their way through an extravagant new world. When the
larger-than-life Count Robert de Montesquiou-Fézensac offers his
patronage, Léon’s dreams are made real. But the closer he gets
to becoming France’s next great thing, the further he strays from
his old country life he shared with his family and his best friend
Félix . . . a boy he might love. With each choice Léon makes, he
must navigate a fine line between two worlds—or risk losing them
both.Â
