Description

In 1947, Charles Philip Farringford, one of America's foremost composers, dies on a train returning home to New York after performing his as-yet-unpublished Fifth Piano Concerto. When his body arrives at Penn Station wearing pajama trousers backside front, there are two one-way tickets to New York in the sleeping compartment but no companion. Also missing is Farringford's suitcase, and with it the unique manuscript of the six-minute cadenza for solo piano that occurs in the concerto. Thirty-four years after Farringford's death the cadenza manuscript is found, temporally, almost immediately it is misplaced, or perhaps stolen. The Farringford Cadenza is a suspenseful, humorous literary mystery which subtly skews generic conventions to continually surprise readers with reversals of their assumptions and expectations. Beneath the surface, the novel explores the consequences of illusion and self-delusion, the many faces of deceit, and questions concerning people's ethical responsibilities with regard to art and culture.
