Another Music
Another Music celebrates the strength and endurance of Esther and Toby Sutherland, and tells of their son Ned’s struggle to find a path of his own without breaking the ties that have shaped his character and influenced his choices. Divided in their opinions, acting from different beliefs, and often living far apart, Ned and his parents yet find that they are bound together from first to last. The Sutherlands also appeared in Morning Songs, a work about which readers have said: “The connection to land and place is striking.” “It is powerful material – dramatic and wise.” Its strength is in its honesty.” “There is a quiet elegance here. The words are carefully and artfully chosen.” “A lovely look into the past, full of interesting details.” “The narrative is vital and lean.” “The characters are vivid – well-drawn and sympathetic.”
