Title: Proud heaven
First published: 1943
Description: This book, read in adolescence, initiated me into Bach and Shelley, whom I knew nothing about at that time. So it remains one of the most memorable reads of my life, as I have made no greater discoveries since.
It's a hyper-romantic love story of a musical prodigy and a notable savant.
This book definitely should be made available on this site. If I could lay my hands on a copy, I would willingly type it out for the site.
