Time’s Echo Description
Time’s Echo is a new genre-blurring book on music, war and memory that has been named History Book of the Year by The Sunday Times and hailed as “the outstanding music book of this and several years” by The Times Literary Supplement. Published by Knopf in North America and Faber in the U.K., Time’s Echo was a finalist for the UK’s premier non-fiction award, the Baillie Gifford Prize, whose jury described it as “a masterpiece of non-fiction writing.”
Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the reception.
