In this sequel to the award-winning A Boy Is Not a Bird, a boy is
exiled to Siberia during World War II. Based on a true story. Torn
from his home in Eastern Europe, with his father imprisoned in a
Siberian gulag, twelve-year-old Natt finds himself stranded with
other deportees in a schoolyard in Novosibirsk. And he is about to
discover that life can indeed get worse than the horrific two
months he and his mother have spent being transported on a
bug-infested livestock train. He needs to write to his best friend,
Max, but he knows the Soviet police reads everyone's mail. So Natt
decides to write in code, and his letters are a lifeline, even
though he never knows whether Max will receive them. Every day
becomes a question of survival, and where they might be shunted to
next. When his mother is falsely arrested for stealing potatoes,
Natt is truly on his own and must learn how to live the uncertain
life of an exile. Practice being invisible as a ghost, change your
name and identity if you have to, watch out for spies, and never
draw the attention of the authorities. Even then, he will need luck
on his side if he is ever going to be reunited with his family. Key

Influenced by the elegant 18th-century harpsichord works of Couperin, Rameau and Scarlatti, Le Tombeau de Couperin consists of "Prelude," "Forlane," "Menuet," and "Rigaudon." The uninterrupted eight waltzes of Valses Nobles et Sentimentales, orchestrated in 1912 to serve as music for a ballet, abound with lilting rhythms and unexpected harmonic subtleties. This volume of two inspired works will be valued additions to the libraries of musicians, music lovers, and admirers of Ravel.
