The fourteen stories in "Where Words Leave Off Music Begins"
dramatize ways in which music seizes peoples' lives and never lets
go. In "Perfect Match" twice-divorced Bernadine seeks passion in
piano playing. In "Recapitulation," while fleeing a peaceful
anti-Nuke rally turned violent, Amelia reflects on her early years
as a piano prodigy and contemplates what might have been. Chloe, in
"Why I'm Calling 911," has put off her music career to raise her
son Matthew but yearns for the work she has postponed.
Nine-year-old Michael, "The Prodigy" is raised by working class,
elderly parents who can't fathom his musical world. After two
mental breakdowns and twenty years of retirement from the concert
stage, Phyllis returns to the piano in quest of the quintessential
"Tone." In seeking musical excellence, these characters experience
frustration and disappointment, but also ebullient joy.
