Inhaltsangabe

Gregory Spatz's novel tells the story of Jesse Alison, a prodigiously talented young bluegrass musician, who moves to Nashville from Vermont following his dream of becoming a Bluegrass Boy in Bill Monroe's band. He hopes to find his long-estranged father, himself a musician, who Jesse has heard now lives in Nashville. Juxtaposing flashbacks of Jesse's past and his earliest connections to music, the novel tracks his progress in Nashville, his edgy relationship with Genny Freed, a violin maker with whom he's staying, and concludes with his confrontation with his father.
