JULY 5th to JULY 19th, 2011
THE UPRIGHT PIANO PLAYER
by DAVID ABBOTT
SYNOPSIS:
As Henry Cage faces retirement, his well-ordered life begins to unravel. His ex-wife is ill, his relationship with his son is strained, and on the eve of the new millennium he is the victim of a random violent act which soon escalates into a prolonged harassment.
As his ex-wife's illness becomes grave, it is apparent that there is little time to redress the mistakes of the past. But the man stalking Henry remains at large. Who is doing this? And why?The Upright Piano Player is a wise and acutely observed novel about the myriad ways in which life tests us—no matter how carefully we have constructed our own little fortresses.

My life is well ordered, but filled with challenges as I enter a different stage in my life. Thank goodness I'm not dealing with "violence" like the character in the book.

I try very hard to keep my life well-ordered, but most of the time I think I fail.
I am not like Henry Cage because as retirement may be near I certainly do not have a well ordered life. How boring that would be.

I don't feel like I have a well-ordered life. garrettsambo@aol.com
Do I have a well-ordered life? Not really. I'd like it to be!! I used to be very organized and usually didn't forget much, not so much now! Every now and then I will get the urge to organize everything, but, you know how that goes with a husband and 2 kids.......LOL!
