America in the early 1800s was a cultural blank canvas, a barren
landscape awaiting texture in the form of learning, literature and
the arts. Geraldine Priest creates this fictional historical memoir
of Eliza Rupp, the embodiment of the many Americans striving to
fill that void. The story of Eliza's family and her study of piano
are interwoven with those of the leading literati, artists and
educators of the day. Like so many of them, she journeys to Europe
to further her studies and make her own cultural contribution to
America's Barren Landscape.
