Críticas:
Mark Rozzo Los Angeles Times [Weber's] first novel is a quiet revelation, charting the paths of several women whose lives intersect with the church, with music, and with one another....she has created a delicate and compassionate tone poem about the dangerous entanglement of religion, aesthetics, and desire. Jackie Pray USA Today What elevates Christin Lore Weber's first novel is its sound...graceful, poetic prose...language used by spiritual pilgrims.
Reseña del editor:
Enter a Mysterious, Cloistered World Full of Passion and Regret, Where the Lines Between the Sexual, Artistic, and Religious Become Blurred. This achingly beautiful and revelatory first novel is the story of three generations of strong-willed women and their battles to balance personal longings with the disciplines of their church: Meghan, who dismisses the priest's injunctions about sex until tragedy befalls her family; Kate, who so fears God's power to destroy that she shuts herself off from emotion completely; and, finally, Elise, whose connection to unknowable forces drives her into the most exhilarating, disillusioning, and haunting experience of her life. Written with lyricism and emotional authenticity, Altar Music is a portrait of a nun as a young girl, an epic tale of a family both defined and divided by its religious beliefs, and a powerful story about mothers and daughters.
