Reviews
PICK OF THE WEEK. Fairfax Media.
Sarah Brill’s Symphony for the Man has already been optioned for film, and this quiet, luminous book might just be perfect for a screen adaptation.
A tale of two people from the margins of society united for a moment by music, by kindness, this short novel ripples along with gentle insistence towards a surreal but ultimately hopeful climax.

Brill’s writing is as tender and simple as the story she tells. Her images are striking. She looks squarely at her characters without portraying them as either heroes or victims. She gives us a glimpse into to lives of those whom we usually ignore or avoid. I recommend this book gladly. Read more.
