Reviews
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. - Sydney Morning Herald/The Age
