The Spanish Bow

A haunting fugue of music, politics, and passion set against half a century of Spanish history, through the Spanish Civil War and World War II

IN A DUSTY, turn-of-the-century Catalan village, young Feliu Delargo receives the unexpected gift of a cello bow. Deciding it is his fate to become a musician, he embarks on an extraordinary journey through anarchist Barcelona and the court of the embattled monarchy in Madrid. There he meets Aviva, a beautiful violinist with a haunted past. Meanwhile, dark forces are propelling the world to a catastrophic crescendo that will test the strength of Feliu's friendships, rivalries, and loves.
