Miranda Siemienowicz writes, "In 'The Concert Pianist's Flight' by Carole Rosenthal
the break with realism is almost complete. The concrete facts-- a
musician's career and his indispensable spouse--fade into the background
behind an incredible palette of language. The interaction between the
partners is described with a visceral tactile approach that draws the
reader towards the incredible concluding image."
